I just installed MercurialEclipse 2.11.0.20210411 in Eclipse 2021-06, have Mercurial 5.8 installed, running Linux Mint 19.3. When I start Eclipse I get "Multiple Mercurial errors have occurred. Please check the error log view for details". Clicking the Details button shows:

Not sure which is relevant, but it appears there's not a problem with the Mercurial installation.
Thanks in advance.
