This would be a single reason making me want to ditch arch right
here and now. It speaks of a hack, or at least of really crap
design. Since it actually boasts that it uses hardlinks for the
pristine copies, I don't really see why it shouldn't keep them in
{arch} to make the archive be independent.
Thanks for your reply and guess. Don't take it personal when I hope
you are wrong! :)

I filed a bug against the two Debian packages (bazaar and tla).
That should eventually make it upstream. :)

Sure, this fixes it. *Another* step users must take before they can
actually *use* arch.
