Mailman 2.1.6 on a Mac running OS X 10.4.2, with Apple's default
installation of Python 2.3.5. The system is pretty much clean out of the
box (literally) and has Apple's developer tools installed in order to
get gcc.
See
http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=showfile=faq01.021.htp
and in particular the linked post at
http://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-users/2005-July/045693.html
Anyway, the problem is that I get an error during the make install
phase of installation, to be precise:
Compiling /usr/local/mailman/Mailman/versions.py ...
Traceback (most recent call last):
File bin/update, line 46, in ?
import paths
File /usr/local/mailman/bin/paths.py, line 55, in ?
import japanese
ImportError: No module named japanese
make: *** [update] Error 1
./configure and make both work without errors, but things stop at
this point during make install every time. I've traced this back to
the installation of the Japanese codecs that are supplied with Mailman,
because these refuse to install as well -- both when trying to make
Mailman itself, and when trying to install the codec separately using
the instructions provided with it. Is there a quick fix that I can't see?
FWIW, I couldn't care less about Japanese codecs due to the fact that I
don't speak Japanese and seriously don't expect to ever run a
Japanese-language list, which makes it annoying that I can't find a way
to simply skip this whole step ...
I think you can simply edit /usr/local/mailman/bin/paths.py and comment
out
import japanese
and also
import korean
import korean.aliases
if they are a problem too.
