Bug Description
In 4.2.2, it states:
We use the bzr branch command to create a local branch of the package. We’ll name the target directory tomboy.dev just to keep things easy to remember:
$ bzr branch ubuntu:tomboy tomboy.dev
The tomboy.dev directory represents the version of Tomboy in the development version of Ubuntu, and you can always cd into this directory and do a bzr pull to get any future updates.
When I run that command, I get:
$ bzr branch ubuntu:tomboy tomboy.dev
bzr: ERROR: Not a branch: "bzr+ssh:
But doing the following works fine:
$ bzr branch ubuntu:m/tomboy xenial
Most recent Ubuntu Precise version: 1.10.1-0ubuntu1
Packaging branch status: CURRENT
Branched 65 revisions.
But it branches into the xenial folder.
When I try to do the following, it still doesn't work:
$ bzr branch ubuntu:
bzr: ERROR: Not a branch: "bzr+ssh:

That's because UDD is dead, see https:/ /lists. ubuntu. com/archives/ ubuntu- devel/2015- November/ 039010. html.
(Yes, that means that half of Ubuntu Packaging Guide is outdated.)
