I'm just saying: If brz is the modern version of bzr, then it doesn't
seem like very productive to complain to distributors that they're
packing it this way, and the will probably not stop doing so.

So a more productive way forward is to investigate whether brz is very
incompatible by looking at the failing tests and see whether it's just
some detail that can be easily fixed.
