Bug Description
I was trying to create a recipe for wikkid and was getting an error on the page, however all it said was "The recipe text is not a valid bzr-builder recipe."
The exception message gives more helpful error messages which we should show on the page. Also related is bug 604718.
My recipe was:
# bzr-builder format 0.2 deb-version 0.2+{revno}
lp:wikkid
merge lp:~thumper/wikkid/debian
However the merge command needed a "branch name", and should have been:
merge packaging lp:~thumper/wikkid/debian
but as a new recipe user, I had no idea what I had done wrong.
