I'm not sure what you are saying.
I just noticed that the path is different. It is the packager, like you said.
I.e in the case of the Debian/Ubuntu package,
--prefix=/usr/lib/mailman --with-var-prefix=/var/lib/mailman
OK, i guess i just have to be careful to doublecheck the right paths.
Next difference to Ubuntu is the username, i read in: http://www.list.org/mailman-install/postfix-integration.html
"Make sure that the owner of the data/aliases and data/aliases.db file is mailman, that the group owner for those files is mailman, or whatever user and group you used in the configure command, and that both files are group writable:
% su
% chown mailman:mailman data/aliases*
% chmod g+w data/aliases*"
Ubuntu uses "list" and not "mailman". I hope this is not a problem.
I thought if the packager (Ubuntu in my case) make such a package available, i just have to install it and all is well, but it is not like this. I have spent many hours till yet to make this work and still it is not running. Now i struggle with the virtual domains:

You will need to chown these files as list.list or at least root.list.

This is why I recommended reading the entire manual, skiping only the sections which are obviously irrelevant.
For example, the manual will tell you about check_perms. This script is very useful, and good to run at various points during your setup to make sure that everyone is happy.

I agree that that's how it should work, or at least if it is not an install and it works situation, the packager should provide the necessary documentation of what needs to be done.
But, these are not things over which the upstream provider has any control.
