Hi,
i am doing an upgrade of one of our servers from sarge to etch. It ran
quite smoothly, just mailman gives me a headache. It is the last package
which needs to get upgraded and i am stuck with the following error
right now:

root@host:/etc# aptitude dist-upgrade

Any ideas on how to proceed? I googled and checked the mailman and
debian bug lists, but did not really find anything that helped much.
