Yesterday I upgraded spamassassin from 3.3.2-7 to 3.4.0-1. I now get a bunch of lines in my syslog like this:
Feb 21 06:17:56 mail spamd[17742]: auto-whitelist: open of auto-whitelist file failed: locker: safe_lock: cannot create tmp lockfile debian-spamd/.spamassassin/auto-whitelist.lock.mail.mclemente.net.17742 for debian-spamd/.spamassassin/auto-whitelist.lock: No such file or directory
spamd is running as debian-spamd user. Its home directory is /var/lib/spamassassin. The directory /var/lib/spamassassin/.spamassassin exists and is owned and writeable by debian-spamd.
spamd is called as follows:
/usr/sbin/spamd --nouser-config --username=debian-spamd --groupname=debian-spamd --max-children 5 --helper-home-dir=/var/lib/spamassassin -d --pidfile=/var/run/spamd.pid
Problem with a relative path or missing tilde?
Maybe in /usr/share/perl5/Mail/SpamAssassin/Locker/UnixNFSSafe.pm
