>> Unfortunately I'm facing an issue with this new release. The configuration done in Mercurial.ini file (c:\Program Files\Mercurial\Mercurial.ini) is not taken into account by hg. It does not appear when executing a hg showconfig command and none of my optional extensions is activated. c:\Program Files\Mercurial is part of my environment path. It works fine is I copy its content in my C:\Documents and Settings\USERNAME\Mercurial.ini file.

I get the following result:

hg rcpath
C:\Documents and Settings\PQU\mercurial.ini

hg rcpath -n
c:\mercurial\mercurial.ini
C:\Documents and Settings\PQU\.hgrc

So it seems that the <install-dir>\Mercurial.ini path as specified in HGRC(5) documentation is no more taken into account (at least with my computer).
