[Mailman-Developers] semantic error in mailmanctl line 255 (Mailman 2.1.2)

Hello,

this was originally: Mandrake 9.1 / ImportError

As a result of a suggestion from Luca Olivetti (Mandrake list member) I think now that you are maybe wrong with that line 255 in maimanctl.

The original line is

os.execl(mm_cfg.PYTHON, 'qrunner', exe, rswitch, '-s')

But this is a semantic error we think. The first parameter is arg0 no arg1, so you should be using something like

os.execl(mm_cfg.PYTHON, '' , exe, rswitch, '-s')

Here is the diff for a patch: 255c255 < os.execl(mm_cfg.PYTHON, '' , exe, rswitch, '-s')

os.execl(mm_cfg.PYTHON, 'qrunner', exe, rswitch, '-s')

This bug breaks several python installations. It don't work for my Mandrake system for example.

It is possible to correct this in future releases? What do you think?
