ubuntu 24 (and most likely debian 12) does not allow to install evolve

It seems I have been fuzzy : version 11.1 made it to Debian unstable 
indeed on May 22nd, and then went to the current Debian testing, see 
https://packages.debian.org/trixie/mercurial-evolve

The versions in Debian stable (bookworm), namely Mercurial 6.3, Evolve 
10.5.3 compatible according to the Evolve changelog.

The problem seems to be that Ubuntu 24.04 got Mercurial 6.7.2, but not 
the matching Evolve version. Hence sorry to waste your time, but the 
correct place to report it should be the Ubuntu issue tracker.

Unrelated, but Debian unstable now has Mercurial 6.8, and I see that the 
matching Evolve should be 11.1.4… More coordination seems to be needed, 
however I cannot do much about it right now.

Best,
