For a start, I'm not seeing the usual $srcdir in that path, as there's
no src/, but that might be your config.
I also don't know in what state of $srcdir (and cwd) pkgver() is
executed - that could be documented though.
The other thing that comes in mind is that those error messages
conflict in that path first in not being a file, then not being a
directory (does it exist after it breaks?).
Also, there are bug reports and discussions on debuntu about that bzr
[Errno 20] in their packaging scripts.

Use the source, Luke!
