IIRC it works on Haiku, but might have some issues since our python is not yet 100% working: http://ports.haiku-files.org/wiki/PythonRegressionTests As always, patches welcome. It's been a few months since I looked at mercurial on Haiku: http://ports.haiku-files.org/wiki/dev-util/mercurial/1.0.2/2 So it may work better with the recent python builds we've done. -scottmc
