Actually, it's barely the same thing. It appears that qrunner gets run as user 'list' out of the mailman init script, but all other Mailman components are owned by root, group list, albeit all the executables have group execute enabled. I've twisted Mailman 2 in a number of ways, including integrating the namazu list search tool with it for my servers. I'll probably install it from source, as I've done previously, and run with it that way. It may make for more maintenance work later, but the initial installation will probably be easier, and it's only one of very many pieces on a new server which need to be hammered into shape.
