[Python-apps-team] Bug#577132: mercurial-common: put localization files in the right place

[Éric Araujo]

Package: mercurial-common
Version: 1.4.1-1+b1
Severity: normal

Hello.

..mo files for Mercurial are stored under
/usr/share/pyshared/mercurial/locale/, but they belong in /usr/share/locale.
Fixing this would involve editing the build process (setup.py script or
makefile or debian/rules) and gettext setup code. Upstream may or may not
want to comply with FHS; I’ve seen that the templates are stuffed into the
Python package too and that your packaging  changes that.

Fixing this would also suppress an ImportWarning.

Kind regards
