Package: tortoisehg
Version: 2.4-2
Severity: grave
Followup-For: Bug #702715

This bug has now "landed".  As the packages in testing / unstable now stand,
you cannot use tortoisehg.

Even worse, for reasons I cannot quite understand, it does not print any
error message about this situation, nor does it even exit with a failure
code, which will leave many users very confused.  There is code to print an
error message, but it never makes it out to the console.

I cannot test the version of tortoisehg in experimental, because it is not
compatible with any packaged version of mercurial (the version in unstable
is too old, and the version in experimental is too new).

I was able to manually patch /usr/share/pyshared/tortoisehg/hgqt/qtlib.py
using information from the upstream ticket to fix the issue, specifically
applying an equivalent change to
https://bitbucket.org/tortoisehg/thg/commits/e571f9b3eadc.
