Bug 20627

Description of problem:

The application tortoisehg 3.9 (thg) will not start along with a 4.x version or the mercurial (hg) version control system.

Currently the version of mercurial provided is 4.0, which requires tortoisehg version >= 4.0 (current is 4.1.2, see https://tortoisehg.bitbucket.io/)


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

tortoisehg-3.9-1.mga6
mercurial-4.0-1.mga6


How reproducible:

Every time I attempt to launch tortoisehg.

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Check mercurial version:

$ hg --version
Mercurial Distributed SCM (version 4.0)
(see https://mercurial-scm.org for more information)

3. A pop-up window appears showing the following error message, and after closing it, the execution aborts:

    #!python
