check_perms is not perfect :(

The lack of permission in this case is correct. the files in
/usr/local/share/htdig/common/ are base files. It looks like htdig is
trying to replace them with ones from the kicktanet list. I don't think
it should be doing that. Compare the
/usr/local/mailman/archives/private/kictanet/htdig/kicktanet.conf file
with ones from other lists and see if anything looks suspicious.

You can find htdig docs at <http://www.htdig.org/>
