The error is occurring with this command:
    /home/lpad/launchpad/lp-branches/devel/bin/py -t buildmailman.py

Specifically, it looks like the following directory ought to exist, but doesn't:
    /home/lpad/launchpad/lp-branches/devel/sourcecode/mailman

I don't know why it doesn't exist, but here are some things to try:
    * run ./utilities/rocketfuel-get

    * if you've already got a copy of the Launchpad branch of mailman,
along with the other source dependencies, run
./utilities/link-external-sourcecode /path/to/sourcedeps

After trying either or both of those, run 'make schema' again.

Since this looks to be a local configuration problem, you might prefer
to get help on #launchpad-dev on Freenode. That way the
question/answer process will be a lot faster.

Hope this helps,
