[Mailman-Developers] Problem with mailman-2.1a1, syntax error in bin/update : print >> sys.stderr ...

[Patrick Timmons]

Hi. 

This is the error I get when I try to do a ./configure of mailman-2.1a1:


Compiling /home/mailm21/Mailman/versions.py ...
  File "bin/update", line 81
    print >> sys.stderr, 'Fixing language templates:', mlist.internal_name()
           ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
  File "bin/check_perms", line 96
    arg.ERRORS += 1
                ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax


I tried with python 2.0 and python 2.1b1 and same result.

Here is how I made python 2.0:

./configure
make
make test
make altinstall

I installed mimelib 0.2 downloaded over the weekend:

python2.0 setup.py install

And verified the install as per the doc

I tried to install mailman-2.1a1 (downloaded today) with:

./configure --prefix=/home/mailm21 --with-username=mailm21 --with-groupname=mailm21     --with-python=/usr/local/bin/python2.0 --with-mail-gid=daemon

I tried with and without PYTHONPATH=/usr/local/lib/python2.0

I'm on Linux.
