[Bug 298120] [NEW] meld diff does not work with hg

[Andrew]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: meld

Meld cannot diff files with mercurial / hg. Steps to reproduce:

create an hg repository
commit a file
make a difference
run 'meld .' from the directory
double click the changed file

you get an error like:

"Could not read from /home/me/hg/-r 2c9a73550084 file.xml

The error was:
[Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/home/me/hg/-r 2c9a73550084 file.xml'"

It looks as if meld is inserting the revision argument inside the path
between the base directory and the file that is being diff'd.

Ubuntu: Intrepid
Meld Version: 1.1.5.1-2ubuntu2
Mercurial Version: 1.0.1-5.1

I have seen this in Hardy too, but just reporting it now
