Cool.
The difference between our installs seems to be that I installed MDK9.1 from scratch. I keep a separate /home partition to let me do that easily - as I don't like the bugs that sometimes creep in via upgrades.
Actually, I also did a 9.1 from scratch. I had 8.2, backed up all my important data, and did an 'install' of 9.1, repartitioning my drives at the same time. I also avoid doing 'upgrade' installs for the very same reason [oddities creep in]. I had, at one point, also installed Ximian Gnome which gave me even more reason to do a fresh install of 9.1. I did however restore my /home/mailman directory [which is where, on 8.2, i had mailman installed]. I was thinking that all I needed to do was restore my mailman user's crontab entries and all would be ok [since all of mailman's executables are in /home/mailman]. When mailman didn't want to start, that's when I went to go grab 2.1.1 and found that 2.1.2 was available. Grabbed that, installed it [backing up /home/mailman first] a few different times - installed it with my old lists in place, installed it in a /home/mailman2 directory [empty], etc. I read the mailman archives and followed your advice about installing a bunch of python-related RPMs, and even that didn't work. I finally decided to use the source.
Glad to hear you got it going. Installing Python from source makes plenty of sense.
Yeah, though it took me a while to think of that [doh!]
