Not much. I was mostly complaining about having to install something
else to even look at the code before deciding if I wanted it, and that
was before I looked at the download page for Bazaar:

http://wiki.bazaar.canonical.com/DistroDownloads#Slackware

It's nice there's a Slackware section there but... ugh? Aparently they
can't even provide a file list to pick the latest version from, unless
you're using Windows or OS X in which case it's in the same place as the
source.

Anyway, moving swiftly on:

ethan_AT_inari:/data/build$ bzr clone
http://bazaar.leonerd.org.uk/c/libvterm The command 'bzr clone' has
been deprecated in bzr 2.4. Please use 'bzr branch' instead.

That's mild enough but this isn't:

bzr: ERROR: exceptions.AttributeError: 'ResponseFile' object has no
attribute 'readline'

and a 40-line Python traceback.

My Python version is more than adequate and nothing else is listed as
actually required on the Bazaar wiki.

Maybe I should just run Debian.
