So there is seriosuly no way to get to the original URL used by bzr? That just seems... crap! This seems fine then.
Can bzr people also take a look at this: https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/34650

This is the issue I described above. I haven't found any way to determine the URL used for pulling the distant repo yet, besides making makepkg store it in a file to be read upon update. For now I have explained how to get the correct URL on his bug report, I'll add a paragraph on this in

It may not be perfect, but bzr info can operate on a remote repo, so could you run `bzr info` on the source url and compare the returned branch root to parent_location?

Can't test right now, but I don't think that's gonna help. What we want is for the local repo to exhibit the URL it was downloaded from (http://, https://, lp:, ssh://), but 'bzr info' or 'bzr config parent_location' ouptuts the same http:// URL regardless. Running the command on the distant repo will just print this URL.

I'm saying that instead of looking for the original url we use bzr info to resolve the source url and compare that to parent_location instead.
eg: bzr info lp:qpdfview gives us: "branch root: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~adamreichold/qpdfview/trunk/" compare that to: bzr config parent_location which gives us: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~adamreichold/qpdfview/trunk/

Oh, I didn't think about it like this. This is a good idea indeed, I'll play around with makepkg tomorrow to test it out. All that would be left would be to make lp: URLs work. Thx! -- Maxime
