Mailman 2.1.5, I hope.

        Can you give us more details on precisely which version of FreeBSD this is?

 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

According to the way I read the README.BSD file at <http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/mailman/mailman/README.BSD?view=markup>, this seems to be correct.


 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?

Hmm. I'll test Mailman-2.1.5 on my FreeBSD 4.6-REL box here at home, and see if I get a similar problem.
