[Mailman-Users] Any Solution to 2.1.2 Upgrade on Debian?

[David A. Cornelson]

I posted this once already and tried on suggested solution that basically
destroyed my python installation. I had to reinstall python and mailman and
I'm back to this exact same problem. To add to this symptom, the icons don't
show up. They seemed to have been moved or a link isn't being created in the
package.

Before I try to install from the .tar, is this related to a poor debian
package or is it something inherent in 2.1.2 on Debian? Or, a true solution
would be helpful.

Thanks,

David Cornelson
