This page contains my notes on things I needed to do to get the mailman-bundler to run on ubuntu 14.04 in docker. I am mostly following http://mailman-bundler.readthedocs.org/en/latest/ with the following additions/modifications.

Install some prerequisites in Python:

apt-get update
apt-get install bzr python3-dev python3-pip python-dev python-pip python-virtualenv

Set up nodejs, the node package manager, and

apt-get install nodejs npm
npm install -g less
ln -s /usr/bin/nodejs /usr/bin/node

(The last part is because there is a name conflict with 'node' so the 'node' command is named 'nodejs' you need a symlink somewhere from node to /usr/bin/nodejs. MAS)

Do the next steps as normal from http://mailman-bundler.readthedocs.org/en/latest/ up until you run buildout. This will fail on the first attempt due to a missing pip.

For some reason, pip doesn't install correctly in the venv-3.4 directory, so you can link it manually if you need to:

ln -s /usr/bin/pip3 ~/mailman-bundler/venv-3.4/bin/pip
