Package: spamassassin
Version: 3.3.2-5+deb7u1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

The init script is unable to start spamassassin when other perl processes
are running on the same box.

   # /etc/init.d/spamassassin start
   Starting SpamAssassin Mail Filter Daemon: /usr/bin/perl already running.
   spamd.
   # 

   # ps avx|grep perl
   7288 pts/4    S+     0:00      0   166 10285   912  0.0 grep --color=tty perl
   23842 ?       S      0:03      0     4 31899 10348  0.0 /usr/bin/perl -w 
/usr/bin/adzapper

Killing squid (and thus adzapper) makes the initscript work:

   # /etc/init.d/spamassassin start
   Starting SpamAssassin Mail Filter Daemon: spamd.

Something fishy is going on with spamd, though - neither pidof nor pidof -x see 
spamd:

   # pidof spamd
   [Exit 1] 
   # pidof -x spamd
   [Exit 1] 
   # pidof /usr/sbin/spamd
   [Exit 1] 
   # pidof -x /usr/sbin/spamd
   [Exit 1] 
   # ps avx |grep spam
