Description Florian Streibelt 2009-02-23 02:01:46 UTC
the paths coded into the perlscripts like subscribers.cgi are:

 41 my $mlmmjsub = "/usr/local/bin/mlmmj-sub";
 42 my $mlmmjunsub = "/usr/local/bin/mlmmj-unsub";

although the binaries are installed into /usr/bin/mlmmj-sub by the ebuild

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Comment 1 Florian Streibelt 2009-02-23 02:11:21 UTC
in addition although you might think the values might be configurable...

later at around line 224 in get_subscribers you will find some more hard coded paths:

227         my @subscribers = `/usr/local/bin/mlmmj-list -L $topdir/$list`;
228         my @digesters = `/usr/local/bin/mlmmj-list -L $topdir/$list -d`;
229         my @nomailsubs = `/usr/local/bin/mlmmj-list -L $topdir/$list -n`;

oh, and, the configuration is loaded above lines 41/42, so paths set there are getting overwritten.
