Public bug reported:

I want to use the pt_BR translation of Mercurial help. I've changed
LANG, LC_ALL and even LANGUAGE to pt_BR but Mercurial is still using the
english text.

The Mercurial's pt_BR translation is present at
/usr/share/locale/pt_BR/LC_MESSAGES/hg.mo however, Mercurial seeks for
it at another path: /usr/share/locale-langpack/pt_BR/LC_MESSAGES/hg.mo

Steps to reproduce:

export LANG='pt_BR'
strace -o trace.log hg version
grep pt_BR trace.log

Result:

stat("/usr/share/mercurial/locale/pt_BR.ISO8859-1/LC_MESSAGES/hg.mo", 
0x7fff2da0e4d0) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
stat("/usr/share/locale-langpack/pt_BR.ISO8859-1/LC_MESSAGES/hg.mo", 
0x7fff2da0e4d0) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
stat("/usr/share/mercurial/locale/pt_BR/LC_MESSAGES/hg.mo", 0x7fff2da0e4d0) = 
-1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
stat("/usr/share/locale-langpack/pt_BR/LC_MESSAGES/hg.mo", 0x7fff2da0e4d0) = -1 
ENOENT (No such file or directory)
