Thanks to the great work of the Launchpad admins, the conversion to the
new repository format is completed and import resumed.

In case you already have a branch using the old version you have two
options.  Either upgrade your local branch and set the new parent
location (which changed because I changed the branch owner to parrot-dev).

    cd Parrot/trunk
    bzr upgrade
    bzr pull --remember lp:parrot

Note that if you are using a shared repository it needs to be "bzr
upgrade"d first.

Or grab a fresh copy.

    bzr branch lp:parrot

Former will take a while because the upgrade is a somewhat heavy
operation, latter needs to pull down about 100 MB.
