Good Day
We have a running 2.1.12 installation that was done long ago via an
external consultant.
It hasn't been changed in years, but I would like to upgrade this to at
least the latest 2.x version and potentially 3.x.
We would also like to migrate this from the current Centos VM to an
Ubuntu
EC2 instance
You have choices. Basically, there are Debian/Ubuntu packages for both
Mailman 2.1 and Mailman 3, but I don't necessarily recommend them. I
prefer installing Mailman 2.1 from source or, for Ubuntu, maybe from Jim
Popovitch's PPA
<https://launchpad.net/~mailman-administrivia/+archive/ubuntu/ppa>.
Mailman 3 is more complex, but there is installation info at
<https://wiki.list.org/x/17891998>, <https://wiki.list.org/x/17892066>
and
<
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1xIcSsoNFp2nHi7r4eQys00s9a0k2sHhu1V5PlantPTs/edit
.
Knowing very little about the structure etc of the data etc, what would
be
the best way to go about this?
If you have created a working MM 2.1 installation, see
<https://wiki.list.org/x/4030682> for info on moving lists.
For MM 3 there are tools, namely `mailman import21` and
`hyperkitty_import` for importing Mailman 2.1 lists and archives.

As I have written before - When I was a Mailman administrator
I was told to install the Debian/Ubuntu package, but that package
o contained undocumented patches
o removed a library that was sometimes needed
o appears to have "fixed" bugs without checking with the
Mailman development team
So, I could not trust the Ubuntu package. I spent a lot of time
determining how to create a Debian/Ubuntu package from the source.
I think that this was around 2.1.14, but I assume that my instructions
would work on on the latest 2.1.x source. For details, contact me
offline. The procedure is not complicated,
