instructions to run from lp do not work

[Thomas Vander Stichele]

because you need bash preexec preinstalled, even though it's right there in the checkout.

Attached patch finds it from the checkout. To work, I think I also needed to do +x on preexec.bash - I assume bzr could keep the +x permission once you set it ?

With that, it worked for me, after I realized that notify_when_long_running_commands_finish_install is actually something you need to type/tab-complete for it to work - my brain used to reading programmer instructions had parsed a_long_command_with_underscores_that_suggest_you_should_run_a_typical_command instead of stuff_wont_work_without_this_crucial_line.

I suggest maybe adding a sleep 11 as the final instruction ? That way you can cut and paste and get it work and show that it works at the same time.

I've run into the same issue, but the patch didn't seem to help, maybe I've done something wrong?
