baz-import test requires 'testresources'

[John Arbash Meinel]

The baz-import test suite tries to import something called "testresources".
This is a module/package that I don't have installed on my system. Is it
a 3rd party toolset that is available?
I tried looking in Ubuntu Synaptic, and I didn't find anything called
"testresources".

I want to work on writing a test case for my "--continue-on-errors"
flag, but as it stands I can't run the test suite.

Also, I need a workaround for the current baz-import using "Arch:" as
the revision identifier prefix. I really want to switch one of my
repositories from Arch to bzr, but I have to be able to check it out on
Windows.
I was thinking about just hacking the code to use "Arch-" instead, and
just do a one-time conversion and not worry about it in the future. But
I would really prefer to do the "correct" thing.

Though as a side note, if we just decide to prohibit non-filesystem safe
revision identifiers (or encode them on disk), I realized that this
probably could be done outside of "bzr upgrade". We no longer keep track
of revision sha1's (and we never look at the inventory sha1 either,
maybe we do in 'bzr check'). But anyway, a simple script that goes
through all of the revision store and renames the files, and renames the
internal identifiers should be enough.
It probably could be done with a simple regex substitution, since at
present the revision identifier is not present in any hashes. (It would
be present in the .sig file, but as of yet, that isn't really used).
