So I'm having some minor problems with mailman, and my server's too stable these days, so I thought I would upgrade some of my software to make my life more interesting ;) This is on SuSE 9.0 Professional.
I found an RPM on rpm.pbone.net for mailman-2.1.4-1. I did an rpm -ql to list the files in it and noticed that mailman-2.1.4-1 has all of the sharp whirring bits under /var/mailman, while 2.1.2 has the program-related files under /usr/lib/mailman, and the list/data files under /var/lib/mailman. This may be because the new one is designed for Fedora, but I could not find one for SuSE 9.0 later than 2.12. - If I do an rpm -Uvh to upgrade, will it move all the data to the new location and remove the sharp whirring bits from /usr/lib/mailman and /var/ lib/mailman? - Can I copy the list data to someplace safe, remove mailman, install the new mailman, and drop my data files into the new location and just have everything work? Is there some "list of lists" that would need to get tweaked so the sharp whirring bits know where to whir? Disclaimer- I know my second question is _close_ to something in the FAQ, but not quite the same. Thanks in advance. ------------------------------------------------------------------- DDDD David Kramer http://thekramers.net DK KD DKK D DK KD Pretense and adversity are inversely proportional; DDDD Adversity reveals the true nature of all things. ------------------------------------------------------ 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/
