Try installing every rpm from your distribution that has "python" in it. For Mandrake 9.1 I posted a message last month that pointed to all the rpm's that needed to be loaded. Mdk 9.0 probably has similar requirements.
FWIW, I had the same problem [mdk 9.1, mailman 2.1.2]. I was not able to get mailmanctl to run using the RPMs listed in that e.mail. I have python installed via RPM, and that is/was my problem. I did not remove the python [2.2.2] RPM, since it would break other stuff, however, i simply compiled python from source, installing it into /usr/local/bin, and then made sure that when I compiled Mailman, I pointed it to the non-RPM install of python 2.2.2. I also changed my mm_cfg.py to make sure it uses the /usr/local/bin version of python.
Also note, I was on Mandrake 8.2, with Mailman 2.1.1 [source compile]. When I upgraded to 9.1, I decided to also upgrade to 2.1.2 of mailman. After the initial problem, I removed all traces of mailman 2.1.2 and tried installing 2.1.1 on my 9.1 box, and it failed for the same reason.
Compiling python from source was quite simple, as the only thing one needs to make sure of is that it will be built in a /usr/local/* directory structure so that it doesn't break any applications in Mandrake 9.1 that need the python RPM install.
