FAQ
Well, as usual, my upgrade of Mandriva to v 2010.0 has broken Mailman. I
once again humbly request help. Here is the traceback from 'mailmanctl
start':

/usr/lib/mailman/Mailman/Utils.py:32: DeprecationWarning: the sha module
is deprecated; use the hashlib module instead
import sha
Traceback (most recent call last):

Thanks. Sigh!

    The above deprecation warning is from a pre 2.1.12 Mailman with Python
    2.6. The above is not fatal, but there are other incompatibilities
    that are. Python 2.6 is not supported by Mailman older than 2.1.12.

    Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "/usr/sbin/mailmanctl", line 110, in <module>
    from Mailman.MailList import MailList
    File "/usr/lib/mailman/Mailman/MailList.py", line 51, in <module>

    import email.message
    ImportError: No module named message

    This is one of them. Since your Mailman is pre 2.1.12, you have a
    Python email package in Mailman's pythonlib/email, but it is not
    compatible with Python 2.6.

    Removing Mailman's pythonlib/email directory may get you a bit further,
    but you will still have issues.

    Upgrade Mailman to 2.1.12.
