I somehow managed to solve this: apt install python-pip /usr/bin/pip uninstall dnspython /usr/bin/pip install dnspython
Ubuntu seems to have moved python2.7 to /usr/bin while making python3.7 resident in /usr/local/bin

I got an error this morning about some strange permission while run the cron.

So I fumbled around trying to figure it out without success! bin/check_perms -f did not help either.
And now I tried to manually recompile and build mailman and ended up with even more problems:
