Hi there!

Many thanks for your reply. But I have a question...

What's exactly $prefix? The place where I uncompress
the files or the place where the program will be
installed?

Now I tried what you told me and I have the same
problem.

1 - I uncompressed to:
/usr/local/src/mailman-2.0.13

2 - I cd to that directory

3 - I run:
chgrp mailman .
chmod a+rx,g+ws .

4- I do:
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/src/mailman-2.0.13
make install

But I get the same error :-(

What do I do wrong?

Thanks for your help! :-)

Kisses,

Maria G Suarez
