[Python-apps-team] Bug#492244: request for a freeze exception for mercurial

[Vincent Danjean]

   Hi,

   mercurial 1.0.1-3 (currently in lenny) is incompatible with
python-subversion >= 1.5 (it works with python-subversion 1.4 that
is not in lenny anymore). This bug does not touch the core mercurial
operations but it prevents any conversion from subversion repository
to mercurial.
   Upstream made a patch I added in mercurial 1.0.1-4 (currently in
sid). This bug was discovered near the freeze time (but I was in
vacation) and fully fixed upstream only yesterday.

   I would be very pleased if you accept to add a freeze exception
for mercurial so that it can migrate after 10 days in sid.

   Note: in mercurial 1.0.1-4, I also fix a bashism in postinst.
The interdiff between -3 and -4 is attached to this mail (there is
a changelog entry, the fix for bashism and the patch for #492244 in the
quilt series)

   Best regards,
    Vincent
