Package: spamassassin Version: 3.2.5-4 Severity: normal Tags: patch The expression for calculation the sleep time in /etc/cron.daily/spamassassin ($number "%" $RANGE) may be 0, in which case sleep fails with an error code of one, and since the script is run with set -e it will exit and not run the update. This can easily be fixed for instance by adding 1 to the result.
