bzr: ERROR: exceptions.StopIteration

[KarlGoetz]

Hi guys.
I think I've broken my bzr setup.
When i try and run 'shelve' in this directory it offers to shelve a number of files that no longer exist. running --list or unshelve results in a backtrace.
Are there any other details you'd like?
thanks,
kk

I think the fact you get a traceback is an instance of bug 670159. This probably means that one of the shelved patches is malformed. Without more information it's hard to tell _how_ you would have got into that state. Do you know anything else?

'bzr repair-workingtree' will reset some of that metadata and will likely get you going again.

hi martin,
as requested on irc i've attached a tarball of the problematic repository. i've been working in the d-i squeeze directory, the lenny directory will be pretty much stock, so its unlikely to be related to the issue. HTH!
thanks,
kk

i've attached a tarball for debugging, so setting back to new
