checking permissions for mailman

[Scott Berry]

Hello there,
 when I check permissions for mailman using the 
"/usr/lib/mailman/check_perm" script I gett the following:
[root at pilotalk bin]# /usr/lib/mailman/bin/check_perms
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/mailman/bin/check_perms", line 382, in <module>
    checkarchives()
  File "/usr/lib/mailman/bin/check_perms", line 216, in checkarchives
    print _("""\
NameError: global name '_' is not defined

Why would I be getting this?

Scott
