Ok, it is building right now.  It got past the part where I was receiving the 
error.  We will see if it finishes. When I did hg pull, it updated some files 
it looks like.  I just cloned this respository yesterday, can you explain why 
it still needed to do that? Thank you so much for your help.  I am sure I will 
be back, since I am new at this.
