[Mailman-Users] Errors During Make-Install

[Luis Murdock]

    Richard,
    Thank you for responding and the tip.  I had suspected python.
     Here's what I get:

    isl{root}250: python
    Python 2.3.3 (#1, Sep 10 2004, 10:20:22)
    [GCC 3.2.3] on sunos5
    Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
     >>> import socket
    Traceback (most recent call last):
      File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
      File "/usr/local/lib/python2.3/socket.py", line 44, in ?
        import _socket
    ImportError: No module named _socket
     >>> import sys
     >>> sys.exit()
    isl{root}251:

    I will install python again.  I will let you know how it goes.  Okay?  

    Thanks Again,
