Description Joe Brouhard 2003-11-29 14:53:45 UTC
When trying to create a new mailman list using bin/newlist, I get the following
error:

kisargi mailman # bin/newlist
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "bin/newlist", line 73, in ?
    import paths
  File "bin/paths.py", line 55, in ?
    import japanese
ImportError: No module named japanese




Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install mailman
2. run bin/newlist
3.

Actual Results:  
kisargi mailman # bin/newlist
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "bin/newlist", line 73, in ?
    import paths
  File "bin/paths.py", line 55, in ?
    import japanese
ImportError: No module named japanese


Expected Results:  
Should have given me a prompt asking for information on owner email, etc.

Attempting a fix by using this forum:

If this is what it takes to set it up, maybe these "docs" need to become a dependency for mailman??

this is from bug #22958 

http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=852347&group_id=5470&atid=105470

actually, to clarify my last comment, mailman can be made to work with cjkcodecs, and a patch is waiting to be applied to the latest mailman.
