I believe it was the > 'profile' module. I do not have such module installed on my system, and mercurial seems to work (but I have a bug with the network) I do not use python myself, so I just installed python-dev and "compiled" mercurial. The other python stuff I have on my system is what is required by other programs. So there could be non-free dependency, but I do not see them for now.

You might want to include that in the description. It is Source Control Management. I added it in the description.

It is very similar to git (the SCM used by Linus for the kernel), but does not take so much space to save data (it stores diffs instead of plain files for modified files). >>From the upstream author, mercurial is a new proof-of-concept SCM.

Once uploaded you'll file a bug report about the missing > manual page. The manpage is there since the 0.5 version. So ok, I will upload it soon. However, I will stick it to sid/unstable as I'm not sure the internal format of the repo will not changed again. I do not think having such young software in sarge would be a good think. My usual sponsor is a little bit busy actually, so yes, I would be happy if you would like to sponsor this pacakge.
