| Thanks, both the failures and the failure to report them are now fixed.

bzr selftest now reports:
bzr: No module named tests
~  at /home/abentley/bzr.dev/bzrlib/commands.py:845 in run()
~  see ~/.bzr.log for debug information

I see:

message:
~  - remove old internal tests in favour of blackbox tests

While I agree that blackbox testing is important, whitebox (unit)
testing is also important.  It allows you to test the api with much
smaller granularity than the blackbox approach.

For example, I'd like to add tests to ensure that '/' is not a valid
store ID and that specifying a revision ID does work.  Testing these
kinds of things will make it hard for regressions to happen.
