internal error - bzr builddeb

[Tony Espy]

While excerising my new favorite command, bzr builddeb, I ran into an internal error, so I'm reporting it.

I'm running 9.04, and was trying to build from the following bzr branch ( rev - ) using 'bzr debuild'.

lp:~asac/connman/connman-gnome.ubuntu.head

I branched using '-r 13'.

Here's the command I used to build:

bzr builddeb --merge --dont-purge --builder='dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -b'

Here's the traceback:

espy@zappa:% bzr builddeb --merge --dont-purge --builder='dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -b -us -uc'

Hey Tony,

Thanks for the report. I've marked it a duplicate of bug 375897,
as though the cause is different, the fix is the same.

The patch should be small, so if it's blocking you then I can prioritize
it, but I have a suspicion that an "apt-get update" may make it
go away.

Thanks,

James
