Package: bzr Version: 0.11-1.1 Severity: important Upgrading python2.4 and python2.4-minimal breaks because bzr generates a file /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/bzrlib/patches.py that comes in the way for the python2.4-minimal configure script.
Workaround: Fetch a cup of coffee, remove bzr, watch python2.4-minimal configure itself properly. Then reinstall bzr.
