I've never used LD_LIBRARY_PATH; I'm not familiar with software that
tries to link to other libraries via relative paths, like your python
appears to. I'm used to using software that already knows the
absolute path to the libraries it requires. I was under the
impression that the latter was the usual way software is compiled,
but I don't have that much experience with compiling software, so I
may not know what I'm talking about.

If that's so, then that would certainly explain it.

I guess you meant "no need to CC: me." But of the hundreds of
subscribers to the list, I'm not going to be able to remember who
wants me to CC them and who doesn't. This list does not munge the
Reply-To header. When I press Reply to one of your messages, it goes
to you. When I press Reply To All, it goes to you and the list. If
you want replies to go only to the list, you need to set the Reply-To
header of your outgoing mails to the list's address.
