 under OSX 10.4.11 'hg convert -s svn {some_svn_working_dir}'
 produces the error message:

 Subversion python bindings could not be loaded

 although 'python2.5' knows of them (i.e. 'import svn' works at the python
 prompt and 'svn.\`__`file`__`' returns:

 '/opt/local/lib/svn-python2.5/svn/`__`init`__`.pyc'

 ), since 'subversion-python25bindings' is installed already.

 so I have

 subversion @1.5.5_0 (active)

 subversion-python25bindings @1.5.5_0 (active)

 with help from the macports list and the 'mercurial' maintainer I tried
 some things. e.g. it seems that

 py25-socket-ssl

 has to be in place for 'hg convert' to work. a) this should probably, then
 be a dependency of `hg', b) installing it manually does not remove the
 initial problem.

 I attach a log file where I ran `hg convert' after adding the python '-v'
 flag to the 'hg' executable. hope this helps to locate
 the problem.

 regards,

 joerg
