I don't do any automated emerges (that seems extremely dangerous to me). I
only "emerge sync" via crontab every night. Then I manually do an 'emerge
-Davu system' (and world) to see what needs updating. I'll pick and choose
from there.

I did change my USE="nptl nptlonly -cups -debug acpi wifi mysql php apache2
mmx sse" and added those 'nptl' and 'nptlonly' and followed a gentoo howto
(which involved an 'emerge --newuse'). I don't think that threading is the
issue here though as it's a uid/gid wrapper permission problem.

Well, here is everything emerged on the 7th (the 5th and 6th had no
results). The 5th is the last email I have saved from the list, so that is
why I chose these dates to focus on.

Nothing else in this list looks related to mailman.

In any event. If I "emerge unmerge mailman", and then "emerge mailman" will
it do a complete re-install WITHOUT killing my actual lists (setups, users,
data, etc)?

This is so frustrating. I don't understand why this is broken when mailman
AND exim are both the same versions that were already installed and already
worked fine. *sigh*
