It was inline, the last of the two messages was:

Sure enough. I turned my head for a few seconds during the make install:
make[1]: Entering directory `/var/local/src/mailman-cvs/misc'
for p in email-2.2 JapaneseCodecs-1.4.7 KoreanCodecs-2.0.4; \
do \
    gunzip -c $p.tar.gz | tar xf -; \
    (cd $p ; PYTHONPATH=/var/local/mailman/pythonlib /usr/bin/python setup.py --quiet install --install-lib /var/local/mailman/pythonlib --install-purelib /var/local/mailman/pythonlib --install-data /var/local/mailman/pythonlib); \
done

Mmmh, let's see:
svlug:/var/local/src/mailman-cvs/misc/email-2.2# python setup.py install
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "setup.py", line 14, in ?
    from distutils.core import setup
ImportError: No module named distutils.core

python -v reports:
Python 2.2.1 (#1, Apr 21 2002, 08:38:44) 

Mmmh.... 

Ok, I  found the problem, I  had to install python2.2-dev  on debian, that's
where /usr/lib/python2.2/distutils/ comes from.

I still get:
    (cd $p ; PYTHONPATH=/var/local/mailman/pythonlib /usr/bin/python setup.py --quiet install --install-lib /var/local/mailman/pythonlib --install-purelib /var/local/mailman/pythonlib --install-data /var/local/mailman/pythonlib); \
done
  File "/var/local/mailman/pythonlib/japanese/mappings/jis_x_0208.py", line 6234
    "\x6d\x
          ^
SyntaxError: invalid token

but at least email-2.2 installs correctly and mailman is happy again.

Thanks,
Marc
