Description: With the current version of mercurial in
[extra], which is version 2.1-1, users cannot build *-hg
development packages in the AUR. The problem arises from a
return code change that upstream put in mercurial 2.1. I
documented the things I noticed in the comments of [1].
Upstream has already reversed the commit in their 'stable'
branch[2], but upstream has not released a stable 2.1.1 or
2.2 version yet. I am requesting that the mercurial package
in [extra] have that commit reversed and re-released as
2.1-2. According to [3], there will probably be a 2.1.1 or
2.2 released around 2012-03-01, so if this is true, just
ignore this bug report.
