I moved MM2 -> MM3 at the start of the year at the same time as I moved the server from CentOS to Debian. It was a complete pain in the arse and took a long time. I used the Debian package, it needed much work, is an old version of MM3 and has some nasty bugs. The MM developers (not those who did the Debian packaging) assume that you are inculcated in Python ways of doing things (starting with creating a python virtual environment); the documentation is poor but the guys on the mail list helpful subject to "you used a Debian package and so must bear the consequences". Implementing MM2 many years ago was a doddle. MM3 is a machine resource hog. -- Alain Williams Linux/GNU Consultant - Mail systems, Web sites, Networking, Programmer, IT Lecturer. +44 (0) 787 668 0256 https://www.phcomp.co.uk/ Parliament Hill Computers.
