As Ryan said, this is low priority. I can see 2 potential fixes: a.) change list_lists to handle the closed pipe correctly and exit without trace b.) change 'grep -q' to 'grep >/dev/null'
Additionally: * this also affects debian, and carrying ubuntu delta for this change doesn't seem to make much sense * list_lists is not present in mailman upstream 3.0 line. Ryan, Given the above, if you'd like to see this fixed, could you report the bug to debian [1]? and then link that bug to this? I personally think that the 'grep >/dev/null' is a sufficient fix given the fact that list_lists is gone in upstream. -- [1] http://www.debian.org/Bugs/Reporting ** Changed in: mailman (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Low ** Changed in: mailman (Ubuntu) Status: New => Triaged -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to mailman in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1015369 Title: "IOError: [Errno 32] Broken pipe" on start when many lists are present To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mailman/+bug/1015369/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
