+# configure turns this file into paths.py which is installed in the bin
+# directory.  By importing this module, sys.path gets `hacked' so that the

+# of that list.  This file exports two attributes that other modules may use
+# to get the absolute path to the installed Mailman distribution.

+# directories to sys.path and we really need to add them to the front so that
