This is a problem on the remote configuration at sourceforge,
apparently triggered when the sf repo is ahead of your local repo.
Should you not have performed a pull at this point to bring your repo
up to date with remote and then merged your changes?

I'm only a dabbler in mercurial, but none of that looks like an Ubuntu
error, and I don't see anything to suggest "mercurial package in
10.04.4 is broken". As I say though, I'm certainly no expert, knowing
just enough to be bloody dangerous.
