Binary package hint: groundcontrol

attempting to fix bug 579181 in dasher. Changed a file and tried to upload the fix, this error was returned: http://people.ubuntu.com/~alanbell/Screenshot-Bazaar%20Error.png Knitpack repository (...vcs-imports...) is not compatible with CHKInventoryRepository(...~alanbell...) different rich-root support.
I am unsure which repository needs upgrading or how to do it.

Martin, should we handle this in the UI somehow, or is there a way to work around it?

[Martin Owens (doctormo)]

We should contact the bazaar team and ask them what exactly causes this issue. If it's something about the bzr version and it's something we can detect then I propose a button which replaces all others on detection of the fault to upgrade the local or remote branches at the stage of uploading.

[Alan Bell (alanbell)]

is there something I can do to clarify which end is which version? I guess there are three 'ends', the branch I pulled the dasher code from, my local branch, and my PPA that I am pushing my fix to.

[Martin Owens (doctormo)]

Alan: It's not possible to push to a PPA since a PPA contains installable deb files not bazaar branch files, they're completely different.

Think of bazaar as storage and ppa as publishing.

[Alan Bell (alanbell)]

oops, terminology fail. s/PPA/bazaar branch under my launchpad profile/
