Comment(by leif):

 Replying to [comment:4 leif]:
 > We might actually (always) run the test suite from `spkg-install`
 instead (''before'' we install Mercurial), since it is a central component
 and -- more important -- installing it, afterwards realizing some tests
 fail, doesn't make much sense.

 ... since the user would probably end up with a broken, perhaps broadly
 unusable Sage installation.

 (Of course he/she should still be able to manually reinstall a previous
 Mercurial version though, but I think avoiding the need for that is
 desirable.)
