You should try contacting the Debian maintainer for Mailman. I'm sure they would be able to help you - in fact they are probably on this list...
Reporting problems in Debian packages ===================================== If you would like to file a bug against a Debian package, we have a bug tracking system where you can easily report your problem. Please read the instructions for filing bug reports: http://www.debian.org/Bugs/Reporting If you simply want to communicate with the maintainer of a Debian package, then you can use the special mail aliases set up for each package. Any mail sent to <package name>@packages.debian.org will be forwarded to the maintainer responsible for that package. ====== If that doesn't get a proper response by Monday night, try the install from source. It's a lot easier than you think. Good Luck - Jon Carnes On Sat, 2003-07-05 at 12:45, David A.
