As they have replied at:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=481047

This extension is not included with mercurial:
"Forest Extension
This extension is not being distributed along with Mercurial."

I'll alter it a bit and attach the request for a new package at Debian:

+   Description     : Extension to work on a set of nested Mercurial trees
+ 
+ Long description:
+  The Forest extension allows operations on trees with nested Mercurial 
repositories, 
+  called forests. Those to some degree correspond to multi-project CVS/Svn/... 
+  repositories. The extension defines some new commands, which work on the 
whole 
+  tree of repositories instead of working on single directory - fclone, fpull, 
fpush, 
+  fstatus, fupdate. It also adds own specific commands: fseed, fsnap, ftrees.
+ 
+ Version information:
+  Official download site: http://hg.akoha.org/hgforest/
+  There's a newer version that should work against post-1.0 releases:
+  http://www.bitbucket.org/pmezard/hgforest-crew/overview/
