I am bitten by this bug too. There is no way you can use a LP across Ubuntu distributions. If it works with hardy, it doesn't work with karmic and vice versa. This is the error message I get:
bzr: ERROR: Unknown branch format: 'Bazaar Branch Format 7 (needs bzr 1.6)\n' I've got the default hardy bzr package installed: bzr-1.3.1-1ubuntu0 Given that hardy is an LTS with still a while to go, I think this is very important to get fixed, so I ramp up the importance. ** Changed in: bzr (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => High ** Changed in: bzr (Ubuntu) Status: New => Confirmed ** Changed in: bzr (Ubuntu) Milestone: None => ubuntu-8.04.4 -- Attempt to branch lp URL returns "Bazaar repository format 2a (needs bzr 1.16 or later)" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/505007 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
