If you don't already have a compiler, you can't compile a compiler :)

So you'll have to get a binary, probably your best bet is to install the
gcc RPM. There's all sorts of stuff you'll also need, that's really
outside the scope of a Mailman mailing list; does RedHat have some sort
of dependency checking? You need the compiler plus tools and all that.
If I recall correctly it's quite a list of stuff!

If your install didn't already have developer tools and a compiler, it's
a lot more difficult than choosing the compiler at install time, which
will make sure you have everything you need.

Maybe there's a Mailman RPM you could use instead of compiling
everything, I wonder if anyone on the list has a good source for a
Mailman RPM for RH8.0?
