[hg] Uncatched error in hgrc update

[Georges Racinet]

Here's the relevant part of the tracebak I just got in a buildbot build:

  File "/srv/buildslave/privbot.anybox.fr/buildout-caches/eggs/anybox.recipe.openerp-1.7.0-py2.7.egg/anybox/recipe/openerp/vcs/hg.py", line 155, in get_update
    self.update_hgrc_paths()
  File "/srv/buildslave/privbot.anybox.fr/buildout-caches/eggs/anybox.recipe.openerp-1.7.0-py2.7.egg/anybox/recipe/openerp/vcs/hg.py", line 25, in update_hgrc_paths
    default = parser.get('paths', 'default')
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/ConfigParser.py", line 607, in get
    raise NoSectionError(section)
NoSectionError: No section: 'paths'

Funny thing is that 'paths' does seem to exist afterwards. It's probably a rare condition

Anyway, this one should be catched and logged, even if that means that the paths don't get properly updated.

Got it again, it's the error one gets if a repo is changed to not be a so-called standalone any more

This error occurs with me because I tried to add a new repository in the .Cfg

Which had already been previously cloned in the same directory manually.

okay, I'll deal with it, it's been around long enough, thanks for the heads up !

Indeed there are plenty of reasons not to have a [paths] section in .hg/hgrc
For instance, creating the repo with hg init
