contents For $i\in \{1,2,3\}$, let $E_i(x)$ denote the error term in each of the three theorems of Mertens on the asymptotic distribution of prime numbers. We show that for $i\in \{1,2\}$ the Riemann hypothesis is equivalent to the condition $\int_2^X E_i(x) \:\mathrm{d}x>0$ for all $X>2$, and we examine assumptions under which the equivalence also holds for $i=3$. In addition, we extend our results to analogues of Mertens' theorems concerning prime sums twisted by quadratic Dirichlet characters or restricted to arithmetic progressions.
