That is disturbing.

You get a dependency error -- this was on Ubuntu 9.04, and I got a dependency
conflict between "mercurial" and "mercurial-common", both trying to install
some *win32*.py file.  It seems mosty benign, but enough that I wasn't sure
about the errors I was getting trying to run the latest forest package.

Not sure of the details, but some Linux distributions of Mercurial seem to
have turned on lots of default extensions. This caused all kinds of problems
and I think (I hope) they have stopped doing this.
This seemed related to the debian packaging of Mercurial?

See http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=511872

Can't say that this what you ran into or not, but I remember several Ubuntu
users having problems in our building, some managed to figure out how to
disable certain extensions (inotify?) and work ok.
