If you just want to change the string, it's in
bzrlib/plugins/launchpad/lp_directory.py

However a real fix for this bug probably requires teaching bzr whether
it's going to need read access or read/write access at the moment it
opens the transport. That will also make some other messages clearer
including one about locking over http. You could start an rfc thread
to ask whether people see any problems with this. Perhaps we would
want get_transport(...readonly=True) and then we can give the warning
about Launchpad only in the case that is true.
