Hi All,
 
      I am trying to install Mailman 2.1.2 on Redhat linux 7.2,
so as per the installation requirements i have installed Python 2.2.3,
and by default there is Perl 5.0.2 already installed .
 
  while i was able to successfully install Python 2.2.3 , i got the below problem while installing Mailman
 
     my installation folder is /var/mailman.
 
  the system was able to run the configuration file,but when i tried to run "make install"..
 
it says that 
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Creating architecture independant directories..
make[1]:Entering Directory '/var/mailman/bin'

   blah...blah...blah..
do \
 
  usr/bin/install -c -m 755 ..build/bin/$f /var/mailman/bin \
done
make[1]:Leaving Directory '/var/mailman/bin'
make[1]:Entering Directory '/var/mailman/cron'
for f in crontab.in; \
do \
   /usr/bin/install -c -m 644 $f /var/mailman/cron;\
done
 /usr/bin/install; 'crontab.in' and 'var/mailman/cron/crontab.in' are the same file
make[1]"***[install] Error;
make[1]:Leaving Directory '/var/mailman/cron'
make[1]:Entering Directory '/var/mailman/misc'

 
 
blah...blah..blah
 
and

---------------------
-------------------
 
make :[do-install] Error 2
--------------------------------------------------
and stops here
 
it almost says repeats the above line 'are the same file' for all the files listed ..
 
Please tell me how to proceed further..I am desperate to install Mailman..kindly give me some idea to proceed

Thanx in advance
 
Best Regards
