Mercurial 1.8.4 was released on June the 1st. Please add it to Portage tree. Simple ebuild bump does the trick for me and all the tests pass for . As a sidenote: tomorrow 1.9 will be released, but I think 1.8.4 should be added as well anyway, since it's a good candidate for stabilizing in a month or so. Reproducible: Always
Sorry, "all the tests pass for Python 2.7"
Now 1.9 released
(In reply to comment #2) > Now 1.9 released 1.9 in tree, but I still hold the opinion, that 1.8.4 should be added to tree as well to become a stable candidate.
I don't think there's much point in adding 1.8.4; it would have to wait for 30 days before it becomes stable, and then we might as well bring 1.9 to stable.
