i keep getting this error. i thought i had followed the dirs but i must be missing something:
Jul 30 11:58:47 orifice Mailman mail-wrapper: Failure to exec script. WANTED gid 8, GOT gid 1. (Reconfigure to take 1?
i let the configure script determine the gid and it got mail's gid 8 but it appears that the script is trying to run as daemon's gid.
i configured mailman once before ( i believe it was an earlier version ) but did not have this problem.
thanks so much,
mark

Mark, re-run configure with --with-mail-gid=daemon, then re-install. That should fix your problem.
