Hello everyone,
I'm running Ubuntu 24.10 and following the Virtualenv instructions
<https://docs.mailman3.org/en/latest/install/virtualenv.html#setup-mailman-user>.
When creating the mailman user per the instructions I find that the mailman
user doesn't have sufficient permissions to do things later in the
installation such as creating files in /etc. What steps should I take to
ensure that the mailman user has the correct permissions to install the
Mailman app.
We should probably cover this in the docs, but for /etc/mailman3, you
should do
```
sudo mkdir /etc/mailman3
sudo chown mailman:mailman /etc/mailman3
sudo chmod 755 /etc/mailman3
```
Then you can create all the subordinate files as the mailman user. For
other things like the systemd service and the postfix and web server
configs, you need to do them as root (via sudo).
