Thanks for your report Wolfgang. I just fixed that in my 0.25 branch:
http://podgorny.cz/~bernd/hg/hgwebdir.cgi/0.25

Building should be easy, but if you should need a package, I can also upload it to my home page.

However, I'm presently out of ideas what I shall do about Debian and Ubuntu. I'm one of the upstream authors and also the package maintainer. However, as I'm not a DD (debian developer) I cannot upload to Debian without a sponsor. But already for a couple of months, I cannot find a sponsor for this package (a newer version is at mentors.debian.net for a long time already). And Ubuntu simply takes the Debian package. Unless I find a sponsor within the next two weeks, I will request to remove that package from Debian and Ubuntu, as both ship a broken beta version and do not let me fix it. IMHO it is out of question to list me for something which impossible to fulfill.

Thanks,
Bernd
