Hi,

On package installation, the /var/lib/spamassassin directory ends up
wrongly labeled on disk.

There are two solutions here to fix this problem, either:

1) ship the directory in the package itself and do not create it in the
postinst script. This has also the advantage that dpkg -S will return
the owner of the directory.

2) Call restorecon just after creating the directory (before creating
anything else in it), something like:
"which restorecon >/dev/null 2>&1 && restorecon /var/lib/spamassassin"
should work.

Kind regards,

Laurent Bigonville
