I have been experiencing a bug when I have tried to install mailman from CVS:
When I execute './configure': [snip] creating Mailman/Queue/Makefile creating Mailman/MTA/Makefile sed: can't read ./Mailman/MTA/Makefile.in: No such file or directory creating templates/Makefile creating cron/Makefile creating filters/Makefile creating scripts/Makefile creating messages/Makefile sed: can't read ./messages/Makefile.in: No such file or directory creating cron/crontab.in creating Makefile
and then when I execute 'make install'
[snip]
make[2]: Entering directory /tmp/mailman/Mailman/MTA' make[2]: *** No rule to make target
install'. Stop.
make[2]: Leaving directory /tmp/mailman/Mailman/MTA' make[1]: *** [install] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory
/tmp/mailman/Mailman'
[snip]
I have noticed this for some weeks but I have not paid much attention. Has anybody experienced this too?
Cheers

Be sure you do a "cvs update -P -d" to create any new directories that have shown up since your last cvs update!
I just tried a fresh update, configure, and install and it works for me, modulo the following:

Cool. I've currently got Hungarian templates checked into CVS but not a message catalog. The templates may be out of date too, and I'd love to get updates for both (actually for any and all languages).

I don't get that, so the "cvs up -P -d" suggestion above should fix that. But now that we've got the start of some real languages, I think I'll delete the toy "rot" translations.

This is actually caused by the default value for the MTA variable in Defaults.py.in. I haven't created a Mailman/MTA/Sendmail.py module yet. I'll work on fixing that up.

You still need to download and install mimelib 0.3 separately to use CVS. See http://sf.net/projects/mimelib for details.
