Comment 2 for bug 312297

Just so I remember: the problem is at:

http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-dev/ubuntu-dev-tools/trunk/annotate/head%3A/requestsync

...line 492, where the checkExistingReports(srcpkg) is called. This call looks up the package's Launchpad bug list, which does not exist if the package is not in Launchpad, as it is so in the case of a new package.

Putting "if not newsource:" in front of this statement ought to fix the bug.
