Package: amavisd-new Version: 1:2.6.1.dfsg-1 Severity: important
-- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0.6 Architecture: amd64 Kernel: 2.6.26-2-amd64 Today I hit a bug in amavisd-new 2.6.1: under certain condidtions, the warning lines are truncated before the description of the warn: Oct 8 10:37:56 spamfilter amavis[6343]: (06343-05-10) _WARN: "Oh damn, something is going wrong but I don't know what and why!" According to a message sent the amavis-user mailing list on 2008-07-28 with subject "Empty warn:", this is a bug in this version of amavisd. The replay reports a patch, but the line numbers don't are the same (due to debian customizations?), so I attach below the corrected patch. For reference, I found the messagges in the Marc Archive http://marc.info/?l=amavis-user&m=121593365130631&w=2 http://marc.info/?l=amavis-user&m=121725098111422&w=2 In amavisd-new version 2.6.2 the bug was corrected.
