Package: etckeeper
Version: 0.50
Severity: normal

Hi Joey,

Using current unstable etckeeper on lenny.

Suppose my /root/.hgrc lists a extension which is not available. In my
case it was

hg-prompt.prompt =

Then hg complains when it runs, of course. However, this doesn't
actually affect anything. However, etckeeper seems to see this as a
problem, and pops up a screen saying the commit failed to happen, when
in fact there is no problem. I assume it is looking at some exit
status to determine whether there is a problem? I think this is a bug.
You may disagree, in which case, feel free to close it. Thanks for
your work on etckeeper, and Happy Christmas and New Year!
