[Linux-disciples] Compiling from source -- config options

[Stephen R Laniel]

This is probably an exceedingly simple question. I'm
compiling Mailman from source like so:

make clean && make configure --with-mail-gid=mailman

yet when the status messages scroll by, they include

	checking for mail wrapper group; i.e. --with-mail-gid... nobody

which explains the error message I've been getting when I
send a message to a test mailing list:

<testlist at lists.hostname>: Command died with status 2:
    "/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman post testlist". Command output: Group
    mismatch error.  Mailman expected the mail wrapper script to be executed as
    group "nobody", but the system's mail server executed the mail script as
    group "mailman".  Try tweaking the mail server to run the script as group
    "nobody", or re-run configure,  providing the command line option
    `--with-mail-gid=mailman'.

Why isn't that command-line arg working?
