TIA,

Err, why?
I've always patched/upgraded my source tree, and typed make install.

i'm admittedly a very low-level sysadmin, trying to learn best practices.

Which are, trust me, having the source tree of the installation you're running (with python, you can patch the installed version directly, but with C, you can't)

Download the two patch files x.0.6->x.0.7.txt and ..0.7->..0.8.txt apply the patches in order, then ./configure.check, then make install. it was flawless.

Well, I just took the perhaps adventurous choice of downloading the new full 2.0.8 install and:
./configure --with-mail-gid=xxx make make install
and it seems to have worked fine (I had to redo my modification to HTMLFormatter.py to put the usenet tags in); I didn't turn off the mail server as that would have required going through channels that I didn't want to have to go through, and there are currently only about four lists running off of mailman.
