I wish to get TortiseHg for use with Bitbucket working in Ubuntu but I can not work it out. I have the latest version of Ubuntu 12.04 at the time of this post.

I used these commands to install..

|sudo add-apt-repository ppa:mercurial-ppa/releases
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:tortoisehg-ppa/releases
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install tortoisehg
sudo apt-get install qct vim emacs kdiff3 kompare meld xxdiff tkcvs mgdiff
|

I am sure this is how I did it last time only a few weeks ago (setting up a mates laptop now) but when I try to run the TortiseHg workbench (|thg|) I get this error:

|Mercurial version (2.2.1).  TortoiseHg version (2.3)
Command: log
CWD: /home/itisme
Encoding: UTF-8
Extensions loaded:
Python version: 2.7.3 (default, Apr 20 2012, 22:39:59) [GCC 4.6.3]
Qt-4.8.1 PyQt-4.9.1
This version of TortoiseHg requires Mercurial version 2.0.n to 2.1.n,
but found 2.2.1
|

So i guess i need to install an older version of Mercurial. But I do not know how. Also, the context menus in the UI file browser are not showing up.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

I tried these commands

apt-cache showpkg mercurial

Provides: 2.2.1-0ppa1 - 2.1-0ppa1 - 2.0.2-1ubuntu1 - Reverse Provides:

sudo apt-get install mercurial=2.1-0ppa1

as well as 2.0.2-1ubuntu1 but errors as

mercurial : Depends: mercurial-common (= 2.1-0ppa1) but it is not going to be installed E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
