I've recently had some Apache problems, which started when I encountered
this bug:

<http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=155939&repeatmerged=yes>

I used the hack that they mentioned at the bottom of that bug, then
upgraded to the latest unstable build of Apache when it came out. This
fixed Apache, which I can now use to load my Website
(http://www.laniels.org/ , if you want to confirm it).

At least one problem is left: I'm having troubles now subscribing new
members to my lists. When I try to do that, I get the mailman message
that we've hit a bug; when I look in the error log, the following looks
like the relevant error:

admin(5271): [----- Mailman Version: 2.0.12 -----]
admin(5271): [----- Traceback ------]
admin(5271): Traceback (most recent call last):

admin(5271):     realname,str = rfc822.parseaddress(str)
admin(5271): AttributeError: 'rfc822' module has no attribute
'parseaddress'


I think the problem is that somewhere along the line, I downgraded
libc6 back to an earlier version to fix my Apache problems, and apt
*removed* some of my packages; I must have keyed too quickly through
apt-get when it did this. I think it probably removed some package
that's important to mailman.

I tried reinstalling mailman (apt-get install --reinstall mailman), and
apt did as I said. I still get the same problems, though; I still can't
subscribe new members. Any idea what might be the problem? It looks like
the rfc822 module got downgraded, or removed, or something. But a quick
scan through apt-cache doesn't show any package where "rfc822" and
"python" appear together. Might this be the problem?

Thanks,
Steve
