Hello

I am working with :
Mercurial Distributed SCM (version 1.5)

and I have just cloned a public svn repository using :

	hg convert svn://svn.openwrt.org/openwrt/trunk/

after some hours work and revision messages, I finally had a trunk-hg
mercurial repository.

when I try to checkout the sources with

	hg update

I get the following error from mercurial :

	abort: path 'target/linux/brcm-2.4/image/Makefile' traverses symbolic link 'target/linux/brcm-2.4/image'

Is that a known problem with an available fix ?

Philippe
