The mailing list for listmasters using Sympa

Hi Hector,

Until Sympa 5.1.x SetUID of wwympa.fcgi was performed with a SetUID bit 
set on wwsympa.fcgi but this requires that you install the suidperl 
interpreter that is not installed by default on most systems. For 
example on Fedora systems you need to install the perl-suiderl package. 
You probably need to install a similar package on OpenSUSE.

Note that with later version of Sympa we recommend better ways of doing 
SetUID, see
