Because the admin directory is no longer included, the www directory isn't
either, and that's where the generated docs used to live. So now, make this directory include the generated docs, removing the old IPC7 and LISA-98 directories, and the .tex source files. These latter are moved to the admin repository.

+<h2><a name="SECTION0011510000000000000000">
+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>.
+</li>
+</ul>
