Hi "bugreports" I can't see why this patch would help you. Variable LOCAL_STATE_DIR is only used with spamassassin < 3.1.5. You have version 3.1.7 from testing/unstable which automatically uses the correct location of the state_dir:
> # If SpamAssassin version is older than 3.1.5, we must set
> # LOCAL_STATE_DIR or LOCAL_RULES_DIR, because Mail::SpamAssassin
> # doesn't provide a default value.
> if ($Mail::SpamAssassin::VERSION < 3.001005) {
> $sa_args->{LOCAL_STATE_DIR} = $LOCAL_STATE_DIR;
> $sa_args->{LOCAL_RULES_DIR} = $LOCAL_RULES_DIR;
> }
> $SASpamTester = Mail::SpamAssassin->new( $sa_args );
