>Description:
      Mailman port should have an option to use a separate directory from the scripts to store mailing list own data, having them in /var/mailman
instead of /usr/local makes upgrade/backup easier.
>How-To-Repeat:
      
>Fix:
      There is a --with-var-prefix in the configure that can be used to
set the directory for mutable data (the default value could be
/var/mailman for example), this will install lists, logs, locks, data, spam and qfiles directories out of /usr/local
