Hi guys,
I want to thank you in advance for your help and your time.

I have the following problem:

I have no idea why is obtained provided that step by step instruction
from the site.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks again

what do you get if you run $GOROOT/src/version.bash ?

When i run run $GOROOT/src/version.bash ...

$GOROOT/src/version.bash

hg identify: option -n not recognized

hg identify: option -t not recognized

hg identify print information about the working copy Print a short
summary of th e current
state of the repo. This summary identifies the repository state
using one or two parent
hash identifiers, followed by a "+" if there are uncommitted
c hanges in the working
directory, followed by a list of tags for this revision.

Any idea?

What does "hg version" print?
It sounds like you have an incompatible version of hg.
If it is incompatible because it is old (before 1.3), the
solution is to upgrade your Mercurial.

sudo apt-get remove mercurial
sudo rm -rf /etc/mercurial # blow away vestiges of old Mercurial
sudo easy_install mercurial

is typically a good way to do that on Debian/Ubuntu.

As far as I understood my mistakes can not say that everything is
apdeytnato repository or someone did not commit somethnig. As an
update I'm trying to write it.

hg update release
0 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved

Would write that everything is up-to-date.

10x in advance

I want to thank you all for your help. Obviously after installing the
latest version of Mercurial get everything right. I have no idea why
apt is a Debian package so old.

Everything is installed properly now.

Again I want to thank everyone who helped me and that gave me a chance
to embark in this wonderful adventure Go Lang :))

Russ,

Would it make sense for version.bash to try and deal
w/ the output from older versions of hg? There
is probably a better way, but something like:
