Actually, this comes from the installation of the japanese codecs in mailman. The src/_japanese_codecs.c file is in the Mailman 2.1.5 distribution in the misc/JapaneseCodecs-1.4.10 directory. This is one of several compilations of c programs/modules in the Mailman make install process. Note however that Mailman 2.1.5 is not fully compatible with Python 2.4. I don't know if it would fix this problen, but if you're running Python 2.4 (or even if you're not) you would do well to install Mailman 2.1.6 or later. I see from a later post, Elvis 'fixed' the problem by falling back to Solaris 8. It's hard to say what's really going on in the case that fails, but it looks like there is some compatibility issue between the header files in /usr/include/sys/ and gcc 3.3.2 on Solaris 10. Presumably, the Python header file /usr/local/include/python2.4/Python.h is included in many Python modules and thus this whole include path was exercised during the original compile of Python for Solaris 10 (maybe with some other c compiler). -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
