Package: tla
Version: 1.3.3-3.3
Severity: important

An attempted import with tla 1.3.3-3.3.  Note that 'wisq' is censored
with 'xxxx' to avoid spamming webcrawlers:

    % tla import -S -s"Import clean build tree."
    * creating category [EMAIL PROTECTED]/dboxfe
    * creating branch [EMAIL PROTECTED]/dboxfe--debian
    * creating version [EMAIL PROTECTED]/dboxfe--debian--0.1.1

    <GPG prompt, password entered>

    i/o error modifying archive (internal error in 
archive-pfs.c(pfs_lock_revision))
        archive: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
        path: dboxfe/dboxfe--debian/dboxfe--debian--0.1.1/[EMAIL 
PROTECTED]/+contents/++revision-lock/+contents
    <exit code 2>

The version is left in a locked, non-unlockable (ususable) state and
must be manually fixed.

Once the archive is cleaned up (remove category 'dboxfe'), I can
downgrade to tla 1.3.3-3 and commit.  Looks exactly the same up to the
GPG prompt, after which I get the standard

    * imported [EMAIL PROTECTED]/dboxfe--debian--0.1.1
    <exit code 0>

This is 100% reproduceable:  If I upgrade back to tla 1.3.3-3.3, again
clean the archive, and again try to import (a pre-import copy of) my
tree (i.e. replicating the above steps), it continues to fail.

I have experienced this with 'commit', too, but at the time, I thought
it was a locking error in my archive.

This could possibly be an error in libneon25, but I have no way to
test that hypothesis.  Either way, it's tla that cacks in the end.
