Mercurial dirstate out of sync / corrupted

[Long Vu]

Hi,

I've seen this behavior randomly where the dirstate have to be rebuilt
because it somehow is out of sync with the checkout state or is
possibly corrupted.

Just bite a college of mine again.

Is this a known behavior / existing bug?  How can we prevent this from
happening in the future?

We are still using mercurial 2.5.4.  Yes it's old, we have plan to
upgrade to latest.  Would latest mercurial also have fix for this (ie
it is a known problem and has been logged to the bug tracker).

Below is the manifestation ... and I don't know how to reproduce again.
