Thanks! My change is actually for the pgarchive repository, but I think you're talking about the instructions for pgweb.
I did get pgweb running locally though. (It required some surprising changes to requirements.txt, which I'll submit separately.) When I click on the left nav's "Mailing Lists" link it goes to http://localhost:8000/list/ which is a 404. So I guess postgresql.org must be tying these together behind a reverse proxy. I still haven't found any instructions for getting pgarchive running locally, but I'll experiment a bit.
That's correct, the /list/ namespace is proxied.
The whole handling of templates between them is a mess (one has to remember to manually copy the base template between two different repos when changed), and we should really find a better way to handle that. But that is how it is now.
FWIW, locally I just run pgarchive on a different listener and ignore that the link in the menu doesn't work and have a bookmark that point directly to it.b
