Bug Description

Original report:
> https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/feisty/+source/gcc-4.1/+packaging doesn't allow me to register two new branches.

Matthias wanted to link this source package to the gcc/4.1 release series, but since this series did not exist in the gcc product, it did not appear in the vocabulary search in https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/feisty/+source/gcc-4.1/+edit-packaging with no indication that it would have to be created and how.

a pointer to https://launchpad.net/gcc would be appreciated; if that cannot be done, then some help how to find the upstream product and then register a new branch. Currently it's just a dead end on this page.

Small clarification, Matthias means "series" when he says "branch".

Launchpad must accept the project. It may be acceptable to default to the focus of development, which means no schema changes are required.
