-2.2 Create the installation directory
-</H2>
-Typically, Mailman is installed into a single directory, which includes both
-the Mailman source code and the run-time list and archive data. It is
-possible to split the static program files from the variable data files and
-install them in separate directories. This section will describe the
-available options.
-
-<P>
-The default is to install all of Mailman to
-<span class="file">/usr/local/mailman</span><A NAME="tex2html2"
- HREF="#foot701"><SUP>2</SUP></A>. You can change this base installation directory (referred to here
-as <var>$prefix</var>) by specifying the directory with the
-<b class="programopt">--prefix</b> <b class="program">configure</b> option. If you're upgrading from
-a previous version of Mailman, you may want to use the <b class="programopt">--prefix</b>
-option unless you move your mailing lists.
-
-<P>
-<div class="warning"><b class="label">Warning:</b>
-
-You cannot install Mailman on a filesystem that is mounted with the
-<code>nosuid</code> option. This will break Mailman, which relies on setgid
-programs for its security. If this describes your environment, simply install
-Mailman in a location that allows setgid programs.
-</div>
-
-<P>
-Make sure the installation directory is set to group <code>mailman</code> (or
-whatever you're going to specify with <b class="programopt">--with-groupname</b>) and has
-the setgid bit set<A NAME="tex2html3"
- HREF="#foot702"><SUP>3</SUP></A>. You probably also want to guarantee that this
-directory is readable and executable by everyone. For example, these shell
-commands will accomplish this:
-
-<P>
-<div class="verbatim"><pre>
- % cd $prefix
- % chgrp mailman .
- % chmod a+rx,g+ws .
-</pre></div>
-
-<P>
-You are now ready to configure and install the Mailman software.
