Hi all, as the subject says. Any ideas?
Thanks!
The mercurial tree will not be compatible with your non-standard
kernel.... Your kernel is reporting itself as a 2.6.15 kernel, but it
contains semaphore to mutex conversions backported from 2.6.16

either:

a) grab a vanilla kernel

or b) my famous new quote:

Thank you Michael.
So if I understand correctly, latest mercurial is compat with 2.6.15
but _not_ with 2.6.16 ? (at least not yet)
The mercurial tree is compatable with 2.6.15, 2.6.16, and all other VANILLA kernels since 2.6.10, maybe even earlier.....

The problem is that you are using a kernel that has 2.6.16 code in it, but it is reporting that it is 2.6.15. This causes a failure in our kernel version tests, and this is the reason why build fails for you.

You are not using a VANILLA kernel.

Now, some non-vanilla kernels will work... but this one doesnt because of the situation described above.

HTH,
