Package: spamassassin Version: 3.2.3-0.volatile1 Severity: minor Hi,
I tried to use the new 'sa-compile' script, but had some trouble to get it running: the script errored out on a compile error. I could not find a straightforward way to find out exactly which package was missing, but installing 'build-essential' on the system in question made it work perfectly. I suggest in README.Debian, where it says that re2c is a required package, also to mention that build-essential should be installed, or a specified subset thereof. thanks, Thijs -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (x86_64) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.18-5-amd64 Locale: LANG=en_US, LC_CTYPE=en_US (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Versions of packages spamassassin depends on: ii libarchive-tar-perl 1.30-2 Archive::Tar - manipulate tar file ii libdigest-sha1-perl 2.11-1 NIST SHA-1 message digest algorith ii libhtml-parser-perl 3.55-1 A collection of modules that parse ii libio-zlib-perl 1.04-1 IO:: style interface to Compress:: ii libnet-dns-perl 0.59-1 Perform DNS queries from a Perl sc ii libsocket6-perl 0.19-1 Perl extensions for IPv6 ii libsys-hostname-long-perl 1.4-1 Figure out the long (fully-qualifi ii libwww-perl 5.805-1 WWW client/server library for Perl ii perl 5.8.8-7etch1 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction Versions of packages spamassassin recommends: ii gcc 4:4.1.1-15 The GNU C compiler ii gnupg 1.4.6-2 GNU privacy guard - a free PGP rep ii libc6-dev 2.3.6.ds1-13etch2 GNU C Library: Development Librari pn libmail-spf-query-perl <none> (no description available) pn libsys-syslog-perl <none> (no description available) ii make 3.81-2 The GNU version of the "make" util ii re2c 0.9.12-2 Tool for generating fast C-based r ii spamc 3.2.3-0.volatile1 Client for SpamAssassin spam filte -- debconf information: spamassassin/upgrade/2.40: spamassassin/upgrade/2.40w: spamassassin/upgrade/cancel: Continue spamassassin/upgrade/2.42m: No spamassassin/upgrade/2.42u: No -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
