I think that's my fault. I just fixed it for Mailman 2.1.11. (I broke
it for 2.1.11rc1.)

The problem is the bin/update in the tarball is 'pre-configured' with

#! /usr/bin/python

If that isn't where your python is, it doesn't work.

Fix the shebang line in bin/update in the installed tree and run it by
hand. It is the very last step in 'make install', so then you're done.

In fact, if this is a new installation with no existing lists, you're
already done.
