Initializing a remote repository raises an error

[Mats Kindahl]

I am trying to set up a remote repository following the instructions in http://doc.bazaar.canonical.com/bzr.2.5/en/tutorials/centralized_workflow.html

Calling "bzr init-repo" works fine and creates the remote repository (in this case, I use "localhost", but I get the same error when using a remote host).

Calling "bzr init" throws an error, but seems to create the repository.

Here is the output:
    $ bzr init-repo --no-trees bzr+ssh://localhost/bzrroot/testing
    mats@localhost's password:
    Shared repository (format: unnamed)
    Location:
      shared repository: bzr+ssh://localhost/bzrroot/testing/
    $ bzr init --no-tree bzr+ssh://localhost/bzrroot/testing/trunk
    mats@localhost's password:
    bzr: ERROR: Server sent an unexpected error: ('error', 'NotLocalUrl', 'filtered-149928684:///bzrroot/testing/trunk/.bzr is not a local path.')

Some extra info:
