[Bug 813384] [NEW] [backportpackage] fails on oneiric with UNKNOWN_MIRROR error

[James Page]

Public bug reported:

I use the backportpackage tool to push versions of packages for the
current development release to PPA's for testing.

Works fine on natty (backporting for oneiric) - however running the same
command in oneiric generates the following error message:

(odev-amd64)jamespage at hendrix:~/src/oneiric/spring$ backportpackage -u ppa:james-page/jenkins-upload-testing -d oneiric libspring-java_3.0.5.RELEASE-3ubuntu1.dsc
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/backportpackage", line 339, in <module>
    sys.exit(main(sys.argv))
  File "/usr/bin/backportpackage", line 319, in main
    config)
  File "/usr/bin/backportpackage", line 206, in find_package
    mirrors=(mirror,))
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/ubuntutools/archive.py", line 128, in __init__
    % self.distribution.upper()]]
KeyError: 'UNKNOWN_MIRROR'

Slightly odd use case but still a valid one IMHO
