A better list for Mailman 3 questions is mailman-users at mailman3.org
<https://lists.mailman3.org/mailman3/lists/mailman-users@mailman3.org/>.

It looks like mailman is not running as the 'list' user. I think it

Also, issues with the Debian/Ubuntu package should be reported to the
packager. See <https://wiki.list.org/x/12812344>.
