Updating mercurial in Ubuntu 14.04 LTS

[Angel Ezquerra]

Hi,

I recently upgraded my Linux installation to Ubuntu 14.04. Since the
update I can no longer run TortoiseHg. It seems that the mercurial
that can be found on /usr/bin/hg is at version 2.6.2 while the
TortoiseHg package that is installed through the Ubuntu software
center needs mercurial 2.7 or later.

I tried doing "apt-get install mercurial" to install a newer version
but it tells me that the mercurial package is up to date. I think that
the mercurial ppa packages that I am using is the "stable-snapshot"
one (http://ppa.launchpad.net/mercurial-ppa/stable-snapshots/ubuntu).

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Angel
