+15.1 GNU/Linux issues</A>
+</H2>
+
+<P>
+Linux seems to be the most popular platform for running Mailman.  Here are
+some hints on getting Mailman to run on Linux:
+
+<P>
+
+<UL>
+<LI>If you are getting errors with hard link creations and/or you are using
+      a special secure kernel (securelinux/openwall/grsecurity), see the file
+      <span class="file">contrib/README.check_perms_grsecurity</span> in the Mailman source
+      distribution.
+
+<P>
+Note that if you are using Linux Mandrake in secure mode, you are
+      probably concerned by this.
+
+<P>
+</LI>
+<LI>Apparently Mandrake 9.0 changed the permissions on gcc, so if you build
+      as the <code>mailman</code> user, you need to be sure <code>mailman</code> is in the
+      <code>cctools</code> group.
+
+<P>
+</LI>
+<LI>If you installed Python from your Linux distribution's package manager
+      (e.g. .rpms for Redhat-derived systems or .deb for Debian), you must
+      install the ``development'' package of Python, or you may not get
+      everything you need.
+
+<P>
+For example, using Python 2.2 on Debian, you will need to install the
+      <code>python2.2-dev</code> package.  On Redhat, you probably need the
+      <code>python2-devel</code> package.
+
+<P>
+If you install Python from source, you should be fine.
+
+<P>
+One symptom of this problem, although for unknown reasons, is that you
+      might get an error such as this during your install:
+
+<P>
+<div class="verbatim"><pre>
+          Traceback (most recent call last):
+            File "bin/update", line 44, in ?
+              import paths
+          ImportError: No module named paths
+          make: *** [update] Error 1
+</pre></div>
+
+<P>
+If this happens, install the Python development package and try
+      <b class="program">configure</b> and <b class="program">make install</b> again.  Or install the
+      latest version of Python from source, available from
+      <a class="url" href="http://www.python.org">http://www.python.org</a>.
+
+<P>
+This problem can manifest itself in other Linux distributions in
+      different ways, although usually it appears as <code>ImportErrors</code>.
