Move that whole directory and all its contents to /usr/local/src/mailman.

AIUI, Mailman is not designed to be run from the source directory, and by
default it installs into /usr/local/mailman.  So you're trying to
overwrite the source with itself, usually a bad idea for a number of
reasons.

Stephen,

  OK. I was following the directions in the mailman-install.pdf. I'm
surprised no mention was made of creating /usr/local/src/ and installing
mailman there.

Thanks,

Rich
