To elaborate a bit, there are no plans to ever make the 2.1 branch
Python 3 compatible. If you install Mailman 2.1.x from source, you can
configure it to use any Python on the system with the --with-python
option to configure. Downstream packages may or may not provide a way
to use other than the default Python.

No.  Mailman 3 will be ported to Python 3 when its dependency stack has been
ported.  Right now, some of the Zope packages are blockers.

[Mailman-Users] python 3 and mailman 2.1.12

2011-03-17 Thread Hal Huntley 
python 3.1 was just installed on a system where I am running mailman 2.1.12.

It seems to have broken the mailman web interface and sending of mail via
mailman lists.

An error from the mailer daemon when sending to one of the lists gives me a
traceback:

==
   - Transcript of session follows -
Message delivered to mailing list 
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/local/mailman/scripts/post", line 31, in

  File "/usr/local/mailman/scripts/paths.py", line 40, in 
s = unicode('OK', 'iso-2022-jp')
NameError: name 'unicode' is not defined
554 5.3.0 unknown mailer error 1
==

I notice in other posts that some versions of python 2 and mailman are not
compatible.  I am guessing the same is true for python 3.  I see on the
python page that 3 is the "shiny new thing".

python 2.3.3 is still on our system, but one of our users wants to
"upgrade".  For mailman 2.1.12 purposes, should I revert to say python 2.7?

Or is 2.1.14 compatible with python 3?

Thanks,

Hal Huntley
