Hi *, ok, I found out what the problem is: The configure script creates the file "/src/mailman-2.1b3/misc/paths.py", but "make install" does not copy it to "$prefix/bin".
When make runs the update target it calls the $prefix/bin/update script which tries to import the paths module. If you do the installation on a system where already a mailman installation exists you won't get the error as the paths.py already exists... So problem is only visible for a from-the-scratch installation. Any idea where in the Makefile the paths.py should be copied and why this does actually not happen? I think there might be a problem with the makefile in /misc, but I am not so fluent in makefiles ;) My workaround for now is: make install cp ./misc/paths.py /usr/local/mailman/bin make install regards, Goeran Zaengerlein ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/
