"No module named launchpadlib" on lp-propose-merge

[Bastian]

When I call
bzr lp-propose-merge
in any branch I'll get
bzr: ERROR: Unable to import library "launchpadlib": No module named launchpadlib

I've installed Bazaar (bzr) 2.3.3 on Windows 7 from the official installer.

Do we really want to bundle all of launchpadlib into the Windows
installer? I suppose we could just remove lp-propose? The issue is
launchpadlib carries a *lot* of dependencies in with it.

We can, but I'm hesitant to do so.

There should be at least an easy way to install it onto a bzr rolled
out via installer. I didn't find the information how to install the
plugin manually.

I think it's reasonable to want to run launchpad-related commands from
bzr on Windows.

There are a few options to get there:
 * just include them (but there are a lot of dependencies)
 * have some separate way to install the dependencies, and make
lp-propose fail cleanly with a recommendation to add them (perhaps
this is already possible through eg pip, but that might not work well
with py2exe?)
 * rewrite this to work on top of lp_api_lite, though that will take
some new development to let it send signed requests, get tokens, etc,
so it's not a short term solution

Use Python interpreter and python-based installer. This way you can
install anything you need using python tools like pip or setuptools.

You can add extra Python libraries to standalone bzr.exe though: just
put them into site-packages directory of your bzr installation directory.

I did try just installing launchpadlib onto the build machine, and it didn't seem to actually include it. I haven't had time to track down the what-or-why. So the bug is still open, and my 'easy' fix didn't seem to work.
