[Bug 284112] Re: Please backport mercurial 1.0.1-5.1 from Intrepid to Hardy

[Scott Kitterman]

Ack from ubuntu-backporters.

** Summary changed:

- crash converting svn repo with python-subversion 1.5
+ Please backport mercurial 1.0.1-5.1 from Intrepid to Hardy

** Description changed:

- Binary package hint: mercurial
- 
- There appears to be an incompatibility between mercurial 1.0.1-2~hardy1
- and python-subversion 1.5.1dfsg1-1ubuntu2 (both in hardy-backports).
- Converting an svn repository to hg blows up:
+ Tested that it builds/runs/installs and solves this problem.

  This is a duplicate of http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-
  bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=492244.  It was fixed in Debian with 1.0.1-4.
  Ubuntu intrepid appears to have the fix already in 1.0.1-5.1.  Vanilla
  hardy should not be affected, since it still has Subversion 1.4.  I
  think this only affects hardy-backports.
  
  Thanks!
