I have questions about Ubuntu mailman. I am installing mailman on an unbuntu system. I have installed mailman on a test box while I am waiting for the production hardware to arrive and be rack-mounted. I wanted to install mailman 2.1.8, but the system administrator had me install the latest Ubuntu mailman package, 2.1.5-9ubuntu4. He told me to check the Ubuntu change log to see what in mailman 2.1.8 is not included. I looked at the change log, and it appears that the Ubuntu package is synchronized with the Debian package. I cannot compare the information in the Ubuntu change log with the mailman 2.1.8 change log, as the mailman change numbers do not appear in the Ubuntu change log; the Ubuntu changes seem to have their own numbers.
My question is this - what have I just installed in the Ubuntu package? Is it mailman at some patch level? Is there code that Debian or Ubuntu has added/changed from the mailman distribution? I know that there have been recent postings concerning distributions that modify the mailman-supplied code, and I need to know if Debian or Ubuntu do the same. Thanks. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Barry S.
