             Bug #: 6747
           Summary: Provide more verbose debug output with sa-update and
                    spamassassin
           Product: Spamassassin
           Version: 3.3.1
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: minor
          Priority: P2
         Component: spamassassin
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [email protected]
    Classification: Unclassified


At bug 6746 it's possible to see that by using "spamassassin --lint -D" it's
still not possible to see where the real problem is present (or where to search
for it).

spamassassin's manpage says that -D "Produce debugging output. If no areas are
listed, all debugging information is printed." thus making us understand that
we should get all the debug available by using a simple "-D" option.

If something else is necessary to pass to -D then the manpage needs some
adjustment. Otherwise, it's seems necessary to have a more verbose
option/output for debug.

Using bug 6746 as example, it should say that something was wrong in
30_text_pt_br.cf (with the line number and maybe column/keyword/option of the
failed check, if possible).

Also, when using -D it gives a somehow redundant/cyclic message that says
"warn: lint: 1 issues detected, please rerun with debug enabled for more
information" but we are already running with debug enabled, right?

It at least applies to sa-update and spamassassin.

Thank you!
