The variable name should be “mercurial-3.7.3” (if the exact version
number is important).

Why does it have to be this particular version?  If any of the 3.7
series is sufficient then it should be called “mercurial-3.7”; if any
version 3.x is okay, then it should be called “mercurial-3”.

Please add a comment above this package definition that explains why
this particular variant is required, so that we know whether it is fine
to update or remove it in the future.
