NoSuchDistroSeries OOPS in resolve_lp_path

[Ursula Junque]

As seen in OOPS-1159EA69:

  NoSuchDistroSeries: No such distribution series: 'totem'.

I don't see more of those lately, but I'm filing a bug for it to be investigated.

As per conversation with rockstar on lp prod meeting (03/12):

<rockstar> So that might be a code thing after all...
<rockstar> I would say that's a relatively low priority, since source package branches aren't completely working. I'll talk to jml about it.

From the OOPS, you can see the request says:
 xmlrpc args: ('~andreas-moog/ubuntu/totem/totem-22592',)

This means the user was trying to push / pull from ~andreas-moog/ubuntu/totem/totem-22592. Branches of this kind are not allowed at the moment. The correct syntax would have been ~andreas-moog/ubuntu/jaunty/totem/totem-22592. That we raise an OOPS is unfortunate: we should instead catch this error and return a Fault that explains that this is wrong.

Eventually, we probably want to allow users to use the four-part paths, since that seems like a more natural way of referring to package branches.

Fixed this when working on lp URLs for package branches.
