Faulty installation?

[pnd10]

On debian wheezy with git 1:1.7.10.4-1, mercurial 2.2.2-1:
I ran easy_install hg-git, which collected version 0.3.3, then ran sudo make install-git-remote-hg
All appeared to install correctly, but when I tried to clone from bitbucket, it failed:

$ git clone hg::https://bitbucket.org/user/repo localname
Cloning into 'localname'...
fatal: Unable to find remote helper for 'hg'
$

The git remotes appear to be in the right place, with the right permissions,so I can't work out why it doesn't work.

Hi Peter, so on my machine the git-remote files are in /usr/local/libexec/. Here's what I see:

$ cd /usr/local/libexec; ls -l git-core/git-remote-* yagh
-rwxr-xr-x  109 root  wheel  1226496 Nov 29  2011 git-core/git-remote-ext

Is that also what you see? Also, what is the result of which git?

Aha!
I should have looked a little more around the installation. My git-core files are in /usr/lib/git-core, so the command you issued returns:

$ (cd /usr/local/libexec; ls -l git-core/git-remote-* yagh)
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root   36 Oct 29 01:05 git-core/git-remote-hg -> /usr/local/libexec/yagh/remote-hg.py

yagh:
total 52
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root  3204 Oct 29 01:05 again.py
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root  5775 Oct 29 01:05 fast-export.sh
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root  3302 Oct 29 01:05 hg2git.py
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 12444 Oct 29 01:05 hg-fast-export.py
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root  3030 Oct 29 01:05 hg-fast-export.sh
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 15067 Oct 29 01:05 remote-hg.py
$ which git
/usr/bin/git

for me

Is there a way to tell where git has its git-core files in any given installation? (programmatically, i.e. in the Makefile)

Having fixed the location of the git-remote-hg link, it works. Many thanks for the speedy response.
