Comment:
I am reopening to update tests and docs.
I am having two troubles, one solved.
First
{{{
Failed test-archive-symlinks.t: output changed
# Ran 436 tests, 25 skipped, 1 failed.
}}}
I do not bother with the skipped ones, seems depend on packages I don't
have installed.
ISTR having the failure before and solved somehow, was trivial, did not
report.
Have been reported in the web, but I could not fix it up to this comment.
Second, I solved:
There is a simple build test to be run after installed:
hg debuginstall (actually, I ran env LC_ALL=C hg debuginstall, for
reporting here)
{{{
checking encoding (ascii)...
checking Python lib (/usr/lib/python2.7)...
checking installed modules (/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/mercurial)...
checking templates (/usr/lib/python2.7/site-
packages/mercurial/templates)...
checking commit editor...
checking username...
no username supplied (see "hg help config")
(specify a username in your configuration file)
1 problems detected, please check your install!
}}}
This is easily solved:
{{{
cat >> ~/.hgrc < "EOF"
[ui]
username = <user_name> <your@mail>
EOF
}}}
where <your@mail> is optional, I did not use.
I intend to include at least these instructions for the second problem in
the book, if there are no objections.
