thats even better, so that we can at least support 1.13 (which is in jaunty),
but I think we need to draw the line and say what the minimum
supported version is.
After your new change it can be 1.0.0 or 0.0.1 ??? I don't know what the oldest
supported bzrlib version is,
but I guess we can forgo to check until somebody makes it crash again because
of a old bzrlib, and add it again at that stage.
I think  we need to set some minimum.

Status in Bazaar Explorer: Fix Released

Bug description:
bzr explore with bzr version 1.13.1 explodes because we use hidden Options
which was snuck in just after 1.13.1 .

So I think it would be useful to check a minimum bzr version which should at
least be 1.14 at the moment. Rather just tell the user his bzr is too old.
