Title:
  bzr:  ERROR: not well-formed (invalid token)

Status in Bazaar Version Control System:
  Incomplete
Status in “bzr” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I started getting this error a couple of days ago with bzr. I have
  tried everything to fix it, but it is still broken. Currently, I was
  using bzr in a centralized repository fashion, with the repository at
  home and I was accessing from work.

  I am now using both server and client with the following
  characteristics, although in the beginning I was receiving the error
  with the version 1.3.1 that is current in the Hardy repositories.

    Bazaar (bzr) 1.6rc2
    Python interpreter: /usr/bin/python 2.5.2
    Python standard library: /usr/lib/python2.5
    bzrlib: /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/bzrlib
    Bazaar configuration: /home/sam/.bazaar
    Bazaar log file: /home/sam/.bzr.log

  Essentially when I run any operation that requires getting a file
  listing from the repository I receive the following error:

  ~/Scripts> bzr update
  bzr: ERROR: not well-formed (invalid token): line 136, column 59

  Looking at the error I decided to drive down a little more with the
  "-Derror" option. When I did I received the following error.

  
  stdin: is not a tty
  bzr: ERROR: bzrlib.errors.UnexpectedInventoryFormat: not well-formed (invalid token): line 136, column 59

  Any advice on how to repair this problem short of completely recreating the repository would be greatly appreciated.

  Good Luck
