Ah, dig. Ok then, I'm not sure further discussion is actually necessary--I was mostly concerned about whether or not we wanted to establish bzr as a db-devel dependent update, since that means a different process than other things. If there's already been discussion about cowboying it, I suppose finish those discussions and go for it--seems like a fine idea to me.

Ok, that makes sense. Thanks.
