RE: [gentoo-user] mailman stopped working after upgrade

[Daevid Vincent]

Here is a related bug: http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=106403

Rob said that "This is also in mailman-2.1.5-r4.  MAILGID is set to 280
which is the new user
id for mailman.   MAILGID should be 12."

How do I set the MAILGID from 280 to 12?  I had this same idea last night to
try it. If I change the .ebuild, then I get MD5 verify errors and it won't
compile. 

How come this version used to work? 

Did something else change? 

I've diff'd the ebuilds and they all show 280, or were they different before
and my emerge synch replaced the .ebuilds with updated ones?
