[Bug 1379813] [NEW] Documentation error
Public bug reported: Section 7 of the Mailman Installation Manual makes reference to the HOME_DIR or MAILMAN_DIR variables. These are not to be found in Defaults.py, nor in mm_cfg.py as installed (v2.1.18). Variations on the PREFIX variable contain this same information. Perhaps it would be good to qualify the statement in the Installation Manual, or change it to reference the PREFIX variable. ** Affects: mailman Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mailman Coders, which is subscribed to GNU Mailman. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1379813 Title: Documentation error To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman/+bug/1379813/+subscriptions
Thanks for the report. I'll just remove the note. The current variables are PREFIX, EXEC_PREFIX and VAR_PREFIX, and I think the documentation of these in Defaults.py is sufficient. ** Changed in: mailman Importance: Undecided => Low ** Changed in: mailman Status: New => In Progress ** Changed in: mailman Milestone: None => 2.1.19 ** Changed in: mailman Assignee: (unassigned) => Mark Sapiro (msapiro) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mailman Coders, which is subscribed to GNU Mailman. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1379813 Title: Documentation error To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman/+bug/1379813/+subscriptions
I came across this in the online docs. This should also be changed on http://www.list.org/mailman-install/customizing.html and other copies of the Installation Manual, if any. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mailman Coders, which is subscribed to GNU Mailman. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1379813 Title: Documentation error To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman/+bug/1379813/+subscriptions
When I fix it, I will change the single master .tex file <http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~mailman-administrivia/mailman- administrivia/admin/view/head:/doc/mailman-install.tex>. This change will propagate to all the derived documents. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mailman Coders, which is subscribed to GNU Mailman. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1379813 Title: Documentation error To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman/+bug/1379813/+subscriptions

The note has been removed and the docs rebuilt and pushed to the web.
