Package: spamassassin Version: 3.2.5-2+lenny1 Severity: normal /etc/cron.daily/spamassassin includes:
------------------------------------------------------------ # Compile, if rules have previously been compiled, and it's possible if [ -x /usr/bin/re2c -a -x /usr/bin/sa-compile -a -d /var/lib/spamassassin/compiled ]; then sa-compile > /dev/null 2>&1 fi ------------------------------------------------------------ If sa-compile fails for any reason, there is a) no indication to anyone and b) whatever updates sa-update has downloaded will not take effect. At the very least, this should be changed to something like: ------------------------------------------------------------ # Compile, if rules have previously been compiled, and it's possible if [ -x /usr/bin/re2c -a -x /usr/bin/sa-compile -a -d /var/lib/spamassassin/compiled ]; then sa-compile > /dev/null 2>&1 [ $? -eq 0 ] || mail root -s "sa-compile failed in /etc/cron.daily/spamassassin" fi ------------------------------------------------------------ Of course, the above could be polished considerably... -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0.3 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-1-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages spamassassin depends on: ii libdigest-sha1-perl 2.11-2+b1 NIST SHA-1 message digest algorith ii libhtml-parser-perl 3.56-1+lenny1 A collection of modules that parse ii libnet-dns-perl 0.63-2 Perform DNS queries from a Perl sc ii libsocket6-perl 0.20-1 Perl extensions for IPv6 ii libsys-hostname-long-per 1.4-2 Figure out the long (fully-qualifi ii libwww-perl 5.813-1 WWW client/server library for Perl ii perl 5.10.0-19lenny2 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction ii perl-modules [libarchive 5.10.0-19lenny2 Core Perl modules Versions of packages spamassassin recommends: ii gcc 4:4.3.2-2 The GNU C compiler ii gnupg 1.4.9-3+lenny1 GNU privacy guard - a free PGP rep ii libc6-dev 2.7-18 GNU C Library: Development Librari ii libio-socket-inet6-perl 2.54-1 Object interface for AF_INET6 doma ii libmail-spf-perl 2.005-1 Perl implementation of Sender Poli ii libsys-syslog-perl 0.26-1 Perl interface to the UNIX syslog( ii make 3.81-5 The GNU version of the "make" util ii re2c 0.13.5-1 tool for generating fast C-based r ii spamc 3.2.5-2+lenny1 Client for SpamAssassin spam filte Versions of packages spamassassin suggests: ii libcompress-zlib-p 2.012-1 Perl module for creation and manip ii libdbi-perl 1.605-1 Perl5 database interface by Tim Bu pn libio-socket-ssl-p <none> (no description available) pn libmail-dkim-perl <none> (no description available) pn libnet-ident-perl <none> (no description available) ii pyzor 1:0.4.0+cvs20030201-8 spam-catcher using a collaborative ii razor 1:2.85-1 spam-catcher using a collaborative -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
