necessary data rewind wasn't possible

> Is this because bzr-svn 0.4.14 is for bzr 1.9 and not 1.8? If so, is there a version available for 1.8?

Is the url given here an svn url?

Yes, it is. Am I doing something wrong? I just tried:

bzr checkout http://redmine.rubyforge.org/svn/trunk redmine

And got:

bzr: ERROR: exceptions.AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'require_any_api'

I'll submit this second case as a separate bug report unless I'm doing something wrong.

bzr-svn 0.4.14 requires bzr 1.9.

And I see that 1.9 was just released today... thanks.

I upgraded to 1.9, but I'm still getting the same error.
checkout for redmine is working though.

Ran it with -Dhttp and got: (I think it's been sanitised...)

thanks. reassigning to bzr as this error happens before bzr-svn comes into play

I've had issues with bzr.webdav in regards to the webdav folder being set up with DirectorySlash on.

If the svn repos are set up the same way, would this kill bzr?
I know there'd be a significant performance drop if bzr were to work with DirectorySlash on, due to the increase in round-trips, but wouldn't it be better to have it working, albeit slowly, than not working at all? Might be totally off the mark, and the issue might be caused by something else...
