Comment 7 for bug 988296

some small issues with your branch:
- typo: natty-propsed -> natty-proposed
- the patch needs to be added to debian/patches/series to be applied at build time
- the original source should stay unmodified so the patch applies with quilt push, or add the quilt files to the branch so it can be removed again with quilt pop
- the patch should be a -p1 patch, that is the files have a prepending directory.

I renamed the patch to fix-slow-bzr-start.patch so its clearer what it does and added an Origin: tag according to http://dep.debian.net/deps/dep3/

I fixed the issues and uploaded it to -proposed, please test it when the release team accepts the upload.

Thanks for your contribution.
