Ha, that explains it, I receive bug reports by mail and rarely looked at attachment.

Copy/pasting the text was not an option ? It would make citing your bug report easier rather than having to type what is in the screenshot:

> bzr 2.6b1 python 2.6.6 (Windows-7-6.1.7600)

Neither bzr-2.6 nor python2.6 are supported anymore.

Oook.

So, I didn't write that code nor that test so I won't take that personally.

Now, if you expect any project contributor to welcome your own contribution, it may be a good idea to not insult their work to start with.

Since you have a way to reproduce the issue though, and know how to TDD better than us, we'll welcome a a test reproducing that issue with the current code base (as mentioned above 2.6b1 has EOL'ed long ago) and a fix making the test pass.
