We recommend installing Mailman and the web components in a virtualenv, but it is not a requirement. We also suggest that postgresql is a better choice than MariaDB.
I sort of am installing from source, gentoo installs from source. No one on the gentoo users mailing list seems to be able to help me, except to tell me to use a different mailing list mechanism called mlmmj.
From the perspective of someone who was in the same place (but installing in a FreeBSD S.O.), I would recommend you to follow the "virtualenv" guide but without executing the "env" commands. It will produce a system wide mailman3 installation but it will work (as it is for me since a few moths ago)
I writed down a step by step path of my installation and it could be of your interest (maybe you have to locate and install some packages by different name, but I think it will be not much difference). It could provide you a overall view of all the processes implied.

Thanks, by the env commands you mean the creation and activation commands? I will certainly look at your thread.
