I switched back to python 2.6 and am using mercurial 1.9.1. Same problem. I also tried a simple test using a local repo. This test failed with an "overflow in dirstate" error. The error messages are attached in the two files. I've heard rumors that the problems are either limited to or worse on ARM arch. My local test was: >hg init testrepo >cd testrepo >echo This is a test file >> file.txt >hg add >hg commit (This fails) Best regards, Melanie ------------------------------------------------------------------------ *From:* Javi Merino <cibervi...@gmail.com> *To:* Melanie Davis <mdavis...@yahoo.com>; 636...@bugs.debian.org *Sent:* Friday, August 5, 2011 5:33 PM *Subject:* Re: Bug#636396: mercurial: Cloning fails with: mpatch.mpatchError: patch cannot be decoded On 02/08/11 22:31, Melanie Davis wrote: > Package: mercurial > Version: 1.9-1 > Severity: normal > > "hg clone" fails with the error below.

As a general thing, don't override debian's default python. If the python package symlinks python to python2.6 you should leave it as is. In any case, mercurial should work with python2.6. I've tried the clone command and it works ok for me in i386 using both python2.6 and python2.7. Can you paste your ~/.hgrc? I wonder if it's because an unsupported extension. I've looked at the changelog for 1.9.1 and can't see anything related, but can you please upgrade your mercurial and see if it is still reproducible with mercurial-1.9.1-1?
