Mailman - The GNU Mailing List Management System

GNU/LINUX ISSUES
GNU/Linux seems to be the most popular platform on which to run
Mailman. Here are some hints on getting Mailman to run on Linux:
If you are getting errors with hard link creations and/or you are using
a special secure kernel (securelinux/openwall/grsecurity), see
contrib/README.check_perms_grsecurity.
Note that if you are using Linux Mandrake in secure mode, you are probably
concerned by this.
PYTHON PACKAGES
Note that 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.
For example, using Python 2.2 on Debian, you will need to install
the python2.2-dev package. On Redhat, you probably need the
python2-devel package.
If you install Python from source, you should be fine.
One symptom of this problem, although for unknown reasons, is that
you might get an error such as this during your install:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "bin/update", line 44, in ?
import paths
ImportError: No module named paths
make: *** [update] Error 1
If this happens, install the Python development package and try
"configure ; make install" again.
