I try to install mailman-2.1.4 using python-2.2.2. Everything goes well and check_perms doesn't report problems. But when I try to creat a test list by running newlist command ( and give all the asked details) I get error message:

./newlist Enter the name of the list: test Enter the email of the person running the list: camelia@wicc Initial test password: Traceback (most recent call last): File "./newlist", line 219, in ? main() File "./newlist", line 151, in main mlist = MailList.MailList() File "/export/mailman/Mailman/MailList.py", line 101, in __init__ self.InitTempVars(name) File "/export/mailman/Mailman/MailList.py", line 249, in InitTempVars withlogging = mm_cfg.LIST_LOCK_DEBUGGING) File "/export/mailman/Mailman/LockFile.py", line 192, in __init__ self.__tmpfname = '%s.%s.%d.%d' % ( AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'gethostname' Exception exceptions.AttributeError: "LockFile instance has no attribute '_LockFile__owned'" in ignored

How can I fix this ?

Thank you
