Thanks for the reply. Apologies for the in proper communication. I'll
try to clarify. The Ubuntu Packaging Guide does an excellent job of
bringing a prospective contributer up to speed by giving a guided
"cookbook" example.  As I was stepping through this cookbook working on
packaging I made notes on areas where the cookbook left out key
ingredients or instructions.  This bug was filed in hopes to make the
cookbook experience even better.

My approach was to follow the instructions verbatim.  For 12.10 I
noticed the instruction:

$ cd kdetoys
$ bzr qlog

actually needed to add the ppa to take advantage of the command "bzr
qlog."  Perhaps this was changed since I followed the page, however when
I walked through this page on a default 12.10 install I did need to add
the ppa in order to take advantage of "bzr qlog."  Note I followed all
the pre-instruction on setting up one machine for development (ie
getting-set-up.html and other pages leading up to this one).

If you feel this is not helpful to the cookbook approach please feel
free to mark this bug as invalid.

-thanks.

Title:
  Add instruction to to install bzr in order to make use of "bzr qlog"

Status in Ubuntu Packaging Guide:
  New

Bug description:
  On
  http://developer.ubuntu.com/packaging/html/udd-intro.html
  it states:
  {{{
  $ cd kdetoys
  $ bzr qlog
  }}}

  Suggestion:
  bzr qlogs requires that 
  http://wiki.bazaar.canonical.com/QBzr
  be installed. Suggestion would be to add the command:
  sudo add-apt-repository ppa:bzr/ppa

  So the instruction would look like:
  {{{
  $ cd kdetoys
  $sudo add-apt-repository ppa:bzr/ppa
  $ bzr qlog
  }}}
