[Mailman-Users] problems with file permissions?

[Eduardo Jaime Quiros Batres]

I tried to use my mailman with mandrake 10.0 and I got a "Bug in Mailman
version 2.1.4", upgraded to mailman 2.1.5 (from mandrake 10.1 CDs) and
got "Bug in Mailman version 2.1.5"

ran bin/check_perms -f and the problem persists

it seems that there is a problem with apache (or someone else) getting
access to the log files
