Clamassassin broken in Feisty

[Mendez]

Binary package hint: clamassassin

I've been trying to setup Clamassassin to work with procmail and on checking the headers found that they weren't being scanned and that the header has an clamscan error 40 listed in one of the headers.

I then came across

http://lists.jameslick.com/pipermail/clamassassin-announce/2007-February/000030.html

which says that due to a change in the command line options of clamav you need to change clamassassin as follows...

CLAMSCANOPT="--no-summary --stdout --mbox"

to

CLAMSCANOPT="--no-summary --stdout"

I have done this and it's now working fine.

The correct solution is probably to upgrade the package to 1.2.4

Before I expend effort on this, I'd like a read from motu-sru on if this would be approved. Is the manual edit sufficient work around that it's not SRU worthy?

I would be against an SRU for this. I don't think it rises to the level of an SRU given that a fix would really only help new Feisty installs, is a config file problem, and there is a well-documented workaround. I think it would take too many resources in packaging/testing.
