Mailman

Richard, do you have a patch for 2.1.12? I need to switch over to
python-2.6. :(

Yes, that helped. Thanks. After years I documented a bit
which patches I use for mailman:

#!/bin/sh
gzip -dc mailman-2.1.9.tgz | tar xvf -
cd mailman-2.1.9
patch -p1 < ../mailman-2.1.9-patches/modinc-2.1.9-0.1.patch
gzip -dc
../mailman-2.1.9-patches/antispam-2.1.9-0.1.patch.gz | patch -p1
gzip -dc ../mailman-2.1.9-patches/mhonarc-2.1.9-0.1.patch.gz
| patch -p1
cat ../mailman-2.1.9-patches/11_handle_propfind.patch |
patch -p0
cat ../mailman-2.1.9-patches/72_fblast_add_shebang.patch |

Apologies, but the URL cited above had to be changed when I changed
hosting
service provider as they have co-opted the /mailman/ URI root. See
instead:

The file INSTALL.mhonarc-mm installed by this patch contains the following

words. The same information is also on the openinfo web page whose URL is

above.

So, which patch do I have to apply before applying the 2.1.9
-0.1 version of this? It is a pitty this is not yet in the
official releases. I am using mailman-20041012.tar.bz2 with
these for some years and see only 2 or three types of error
in the logs. But damn mailman ignores some subscription
confirmation messages and breaks on some non-us-ascii
encoded messages so I should upgrade to see if it helps. :((

mhonarc-2.1.9-0.1.patch.gz is a MM 2.1.9 compatible version of
the patch

Use mhonarc-2.1.7-0.1.patch.gz for both MM 2.1.7 and MM 2.1.8

mhonarc-2.1.6-0.3.patch.gz corrects a long standing omission in the code
of
Mailman/Cgi/create.py which fails to get the initial setup of lists
created
through the web quite right. This leads to spurious errors being logged on

message archiving until bin/arch --wipe is run for such a list affected.
Lists
created with bin/newlist did not have this problem.

mhonarc-2.1.6-0.2.patch.gz corrects an error in the modified code of
$prefix/bin/arch introduced by the mhonarc-2.1.6-0.1.patch.gz - the
problem was not present in patches for previous MM versions. In some
circumstances, after running $prefix/bin/arch --wipe, subsequent post to a

list my be generated using the wrong archiver. Examining index pages in
the archives of a list will show if this problem has affected that list.
Reinstallation with this revised patch and rerunning $prefix/bin/arch
--wipe
should resolve the problem.

I've applied this patch(mhonarc-2.1.4-0.1.patch.gz) and it
works great for me. Would someone apply to offcial cvs tree?
Thanks.

this patch

mhonarc-2.1.3-0.6.patch better supports the use of MHonArc
-saveresources option. Also fixes minor HTML syntax error in
mhonarc.mrc and author.mrc that affected generated date and
author index pages.

With mhonarc-2.1.3-0.4.patch, the default path to MHonArc itself
defined in Defaults.py is the empty string and, until this is
changed, the option to select MHonArc instead of pipermail for
per-list archiving is not offered on the web admin GUI.

Under some circumstances, when a single message is passed to
MHonArc for archiving via a pipe, MHonArc may finish its
processing and exit, closing its STDIN before the Mailman
process that invoked it has finished output of the message
to the pipe. Mistakenly, the patched pipermail code treated
this as an error. mhonarc-2.1.3-0.3.patch corrects this mistake.
