grep 91 /etc/group /etc/passwd
and what do you get?  Maybe majordomo has been installed on this box
before.  I have not seen anything else that tries to use these numbers.
Make sure all remnants of previous attempts to install majordomo are
removed before using the RPM installer.  You might also try installing
with different flags to the rpm command, like -Uhv or -Fhv instead of
-ihv.  The ihv does an install, with "hash" progress marks and verbose
messages.  Uhv does the same, but "updates" any existing majordomo that
is installed, and Fhv forces the install.  Please do not use Fhv until
you know what user and group 91 are, and why the rpm could not find
the /etc/aliases file.  If the 91 is in fact majordomo, you just have
to make use of the existing structure to use it, or use the Uhv flags
to rpm to safely guarantee all the pieces are in place.
