What debian version are you running? Probably lenny (current stable), as etch (current oldstable) is about to EOL. Firstly, bzr 2.0.2 is currently packaged in debian lenny-backports. http://packages.debian.org/lenny-backports/bzr Dunno if 2.0.2->2.0.3 matters much. But using a nicely packaged backport is likely to be less painful. Note 2.0.3 is packaged in debian unstable. As regards your error: > No module named bz2 Hmm. Module bz2 is bundled with python since python 2.3 Can you type "python" to get a python repl, then type "import bz2" to try to import it? If that fails, there's something broken with your python - though presumably you're using the debian packaging of it?
