Package: mailman
Version: 2.1.9-7
Current behaviour:
The GNU Mailman package's init(8) script assumes that the site list is
called "maiman" and refused to start if there is not list with this
name.
Expected behaviour:
The GNU Mailman package's init(8) script should check for the
MAILMAN_SITE_LIST value defined in /etc/mailman/mm_cfg.py and check
for a list with this name.
Solution:
I have attached a patch which fixes this issue.
