That might be interesting; I don't think it needs to be part of building
the binaries though, so I'd suggest it be done separately.

Do we want bzr->bazaar? why not keep bzr bzr because the tool that
people are installing is in fact 'bzr'. I'd suggest that we reserve
'bazaar' for some meta-package that can bring in GUI's, extensions etc
etc.
