Installing `bzr` on Media Temple(GS)

I've been migrating a few personal development sites to Media Temple's Grid Service. I normally use `bzr` to manage my websites through development and roll out. Media Temple is nice enough to provide cvs, svn, and git, but no bzr. If you ask about getting bzr from their support team they'll probably try to upsell you to a dv with some perfunctory statement about compiled apps and root access....

Fortunately, `bzr` is a python module that which requires python 2.4 and Media Temple's grid has python 2.4. So the quick and dirty solution to getting my favorite revision control set up on Media Temple...

#!/bin/bash
wget https://launchpadlibrarian.net/14566578/bzr-1.5.tar.gz
wget http://www.amk.ca/files/python/crypto/pycrypto-2.0.1.tar.gz
wget http://www.lag.net/paramiko/download/paramiko-1.7.2.zip
wget http://effbot.org/media/downloads/elementtree-1.2.6-20050316.tar.gz
wget http://effbot.org/media/downloads/cElementTree-1.0.5-20051216.tar.gz

#install bzr
tar -xvzf bzr-1.5.tar.gz
cd bzr-1.5
python setup.py install --home=~
cd ..

#install pycrypto
tar -xvzf pycrypto-2.0.1.tar.gz
cd pycrypto-2.0.1
python setup.py install --home=~
cd ..

#install paramiko
unzip paramiko-1.7.2.zip
cd paramiko-1.7.2
python setup.py install --home=~
cd ..

#install elementtree
tar -xvzf elementtree-1.2.6-20050316.tar.gz
cd elementtree-1.2.6-20050316
python setup.py install --home=~
cd ..

#install celementtree
tar -xvzf cElementTree-1.0.5-20051216.tar.gz
cd cElementTree-1.0.5-20051216
python setup.py install --home=~
cd ..

#fix paths in .profile
echo "export PATH=\$PATH:~/bin" >> ~/.profile
echo "export PYTHONPATH=\$PYTHONPATH:~/lib/python" >> ~/.profile
source ~/.profile

Some caveats for using Bzr with Media Temple's Grid Service.

urlencode the url to the repository
use absolute paths

bad: bzr branch sftp://user%example.com@example.com/domains/example.com/html mybranch
good: bzr branch sftp://user%25example.com@example.com/home/12345/users/.home/domains/example.com/html mybranch

Thanks

I was curious if anyone has this host, I was curious as to if it's worth paying for the service or not. I notice they have one click installs of drupal. I currently have dreamhost which is a good host but the Grid Service media temple provides is quite inticing espically considering it isn't a whole lot more than what I pay for dreamhost.
