[Pkg-bazaar-maint] Bug#503834: bzr: Gives 'internal error' with bzr commit

[Andrew Walker]

Package: bzr
Version: 1.5-1.1
Severity: normal

bzr commit gives dbus.exceptions.DBusException, dumps a python backtrace, 
asks me to report an internal error and leaves the working tree out of in
an out of date state. bzr update brings things back up to date. 


For example:
