Version: 1:2.1.8-3
Severity: serious
Justification: Etch RC Policy 5.(c)
Tags: pending
(Bug is present up to and including 1:2.1.9-2.)
Mailman installs architecture-independent program files not written
except at install/upgrade time in /var/lib/mailman/pythonlib/email/
. That's a gross violation of the FHS, which mandates /usr/ instead of
/var/ .
1:2.1.9-3 will make it /usr/lib/mailman/pythonlib/email, which is
still suboptimal (the non-compiled files should be in /usr/share,
being architecture-independent), and may technically still be a
violation, although not a "gross" one, but more difficult to achieve
(the files are compiled at install/upgrade time; the compiled versions
must be in /usr/lib; not sure there even _is_ a way to have sources
and compiled versions separated in Python - if any Python expert can
contradict me on that, please do! Possibly the Debian python-packaging
automating tools already handle this /usr/share and /usr/lib thing
decently, but this has to be checked, and is doubtful, since
/usr/lib/python2.4 contains so many .py files).

[ Lionel Elie Mamane ]
* Follow requirements/requests of upgrade to new python policy more
narrowly: build-depend on newer version of python-support, add
XS-Python-Version/XB-Python-Version fields to control, give path to
private python modules to dh_pysupport (Closes: #394181).
* Move python-lib directory to /usr/lib/mailman/, like Mailman code;
/var/lib/mailman is grossly wrong (Closes: #400005).
.
[ Thijs Kinkhorst ]
* Add subscribe/unsubscribe aliases to second half of example, and a
note about chgrp when creating a new list through the web interface.
Both in README.Exim4.Debian, thanks Ian Wienand (Closes: 387457).
* Remove lintian overrides that are not needed with recent Lintians.
.
[ Translations ]
* Updated Vietnamese by Clytie Siddall (Closes: 395851).
* Updated German by Holger Wansing (Closes: 400963).
