It will very likely be easier to download and install VirtualBox +
Ubuntu image and run your convert than get bzrlib properly installed.

Believe it or not, we don't actually implement complete support for
natively reading git/p4/svn/cvs/bzr/darcs/arch/monotone in only 268k of
code. We rely on (parts of) those other systems being installed.

Here's how it works:

$ python
Python 2.7.5+ (default, Sep 17 2013, 15:31:50) 
[GCC 4.8.1] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import sys
>>> print sys.path   <- show where python searches for things

If you can successfully import bzrlib like this, you're ready to go.
