I'm installing onto freebsd 4.x. I have mailman 2.2.5, latest tarball. reading the README.BSD file lead me to beleive that I did NOT need to SGID any directories in my mailmail install directory. So my install directory looks like this:
drwxrwxr-x 13 mm mm 512 May 24 15:32 installDir -rw-r--r-- 1 mm mm 16 May 24 14:33 mailmanInstallation drwxrwxr-x 3 mm mm 512 May 24 15:32 var the user/group that mailman will be running as is mm:mm. running make DIRSETGID=: install chucked out the following message part way through: /usr/bin/install -c -m 644 sitelist.cfg /home/mm/var/mailman/data for p in email-2.5.5 JapaneseCodecs-1.4.10 KoreanCodecs-2.0.5; do gunzip -c ./$p.tar.gz | (cd . ; tar xf -); (cd ./$p ; umask 02 ; PYTHONPATH=/home/mm/installDir/pythonlib /usr/local/bin/python setup.py --quiet install --install-lib /home/mm/installDir/pythonlib --install-purelib /home/mm/installDir/pythonlib --install-data /home/mm/installDir/pythonlib); done tar: email-2.5.5/email/test/data/audiotest.au: Cannot open: File exists tar: email-2.5.5/email/test/data/msg_01.txt: Cannot open: File exists tar: email-2.5.5/email/test/data/msg_02.txt: Cannot open: File exists Am I totally missunderstanding the BSD instructions? -- David Bear phone: 480-965-8257 fax: 480-965-9189 College of Public Programs/ASU Wilson Hall 232 Tempe, AZ 85287-0803 "Beware the IP portfolio, everyone will be suspect of trespassing" ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/
