Bug Description

bazaar recommends bazaar-doc package, which is not available in Ubuntu/universe,
nor in even in Debian, as the following URL shows (i.e. this is also an upstream
packaging bug):
http://packages.debian.org/unstable/devel/bazaar
I'd appreciate a little more documentation on baz than the sole manpage in the
package itself (of course, there's the web).
My assumption on the packaging system (I'm new to Ubuntu & Debian) is that its
relations are closed over, i.e. it will not recommend packages which are only
found on e.g. some private's person web-site.
Regards

I just realized that it also suggests the ssh package, which is labeled
"transitional".
Supposedly openssh-client is enough (I don't know yet whether baz includes
server functionality).
