corrupt: attempt to add line-delta non-delta knit

[أحمد المحمودي (Ahmed El-Mahmoudy)]

Version: 1.3.1~rc1-0ubuntu1
Release: Hardy

Hello,

  I get this error when I run:

bzr co lp:ubuntume

And I get an empty "ubuntume" folder.

Yet if I run, it works fine without giving any errors:

bzr co lp:ubuntume-artwork

'ubuntume' is using knits, and you have a local repository in pack format.

For some reason, one of the texts in their 'revisions.knit' is a line-delta, though we never intended them to be delta-ed.

When fetching that into a pack repository, it aborts because packs revision index does not contain a place to store the delta parent.

I haven't been able to figure out how a line-delta is appearing in these knit repositories in the first place, but it has shown up in other locations.

As a workaround, you could:

1) Create a new shared repository in knits format just for this branch
  bzr init-repo --knits --trees ubuntume
  cd ubuntume
  bzr co lp:ubuntume

2) I don't know if you are part of the ubuntume project, but I believe upgrading the branch to --pack-0.92 would fix this as well.
  bzr upgrade --pack-0.92 lp:ubuntume

Another person working on ubuntume is able to do bzr checkout on
lp:ubuntume .

I got this error:

bzr: ERROR: The branch format Bazaar-NG meta directory, format 1 is already at the most recent format.

I forgot that you can't upgrade over bzr+ssh, so you need to do:
bzr upgrade sftp://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntume.team/ubuntume/hardy/

That solved my problem, thanks a lot !
