I am building the new package for Mercurial 1.5 and I am having some issues and 
I would appreciate some help testing.

It seems when doing a test build under the fink, for some reason during the 
Test Phase things get botched and a lot of tests fail.

I spoke with upstream and, at least, under Snow Leopard no test failures are 
expected. I have tested mercurial with the native Python and indeed there are 
no problems. Building and testing manually with Fink's Python also returned few 
to no issues.

I think the problem is related to whatever shell settings and permissions are 
present when the TestPhase is executed.

While I have been able to test with few errors, Hanspeter who was reviewing the 
package is getting a lot on 10.5. So I would appreciate if some other people in 
different platforms could also run the tests and give me the logs of any of the 
failures you might see.

To perform the test you need to first build and install the new mercurial 
package and then also extract the source. Within the source you need to run the 
following command inside the 'tests' directory:

~/mercurial-1.5/tests> /sw/bin/python run-tests.py --with-hg=/sw/bin/hg -v

Of all the tests performed, there are a couple that fail intermittently related 
to hgweb. I would disregard those since I presume it's related to some network 
timing issue and the test is not robustly written. Using he previous method I 
have had 100% coverage on Python 2.6.4 on 10.6.2 both i386 and x86_64 versions.

Let me know what are your experiences.

Thanks,
Pepe
