What do they think the documentation is for, inflating the tarball size? But, yeah, I don't read docs either, until there's a problem. No excuse for not skimming through the READMEs and INSTALLs, though. >Could it really hurt to put a note at the end of make install -- >something like 'You should now run $prefix/bin/check_perms to see if any >files or directories just installed need permission fixes.' You might as well cat out manual.txt, then, because if it's not check_install it's crontab. Or --with[cgi|mail]-gid. Or aliases. No, perhaps a note at the end of make install saying 'Read the README. Really. We mean it." would have the same effect. -- Satya. <URL:http://satya.virtualave.net/> Pound forehead on keyboard to continue. _______________________________________________ Mailman-Developers mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-developers
