Interestingly, they aren't failing on upstream's trusty jenkins instance:

[Vincent Ladeuil (vila)]

Fix available in associated branch. Only tests are affected. This has been caused by python 2.7.6 introducing one backward incompatible change and fixing a bug in nt path handling.

> Interestingly, they aren't failing on upstream's trusty jenkins instance:

<cough> chroot out-of-date <cough> lack of automation / resources <cough>

http://babune.ladeuil.net:24842/job/selftest-chroot-trusty/

shows the failures now ;)

[Launchpad Janitor (janitor)]

---------------
bzr (2.6.0+bzr6593-1ubuntu1) trusty; urgency=medium

  * Merge from Debian unstable. Remaining changes:
   - Drop non-main build dependencies on python-{meliae,lzma,medusa}

bzr (2.6.0+bzr6593-1) unstable; urgency=medium

  * New upstream snapshot:
   - Use LooseVersion from distutils to check Pyrex/Cython version
     in order to handle non-integers in the version string.
     Closes: #743096, #683130, LP: #1030521
   - Fix test failures with python-2.7.6 (LP: #1303879).
