I'm just starting out with Mailman and have limited experience with Linux.
When I attempt to configure the Mailman installation, I get the following message:


[EMAIL PROTECTED] Mailman]$ cd mailman-2.1.3
[EMAIL PROTECTED] mailman-2.1.3]$ ./configure
checking for --with-python... no
checking for python... /usr/bin/python
checking Python interpreter... /usr/bin/python
checking Python version... 2.2.1
checking that Python has a working distutils... configure: error:

***** Distutils is not available or is incomplete for /usr/bin/python
***** If you installed Python from RPM (or other package manager)
***** be sure to install the -devel package, or install Python
***** from source.  See README.LINUX for details

Python is installed on my RedHat Linux 8.0 server, but how do I get the distutils to work properly?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Sincerely,
Brent Shafer
