Package: spamassassin
Version: 3.3.0-1
Severity: normal

On upgrading with AWL configuration lines in local.cf, e.g.,

auto_whitelist_factory    Mail::SpamAssassin::SQLBasedAddrList

...this happens:

Setting up spamassassin (3.3.0-1) ...

Configuration file `/etc/spamassassin/local.cf'
==> Modified (by you or by a script) since installation.
==> Package distributor has shipped an updated version.
What would you like to do about it ?  Your options are:
Y or I  : install the package maintainer's version
N or O  : keep your currently-installed version
D     : show the differences between the versions
Z     : background this process to examine the situation
The default action is to keep your current version.
*** local.cf (Y/I/N/O/D/Z) [default=N] ? 
Installing new version of config file /etc/spamassassin/v310.pre ...
Installing new version of config file /etc/spamassassin/v312.pre ...
Running sa-compile (may take a long time)
dpkg: error processing spamassassin (--configure):
subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 2
Setting up spamc (3.3.0-1) ...
(...)
Errors were encountered while processing:
spamassassin
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

This is because in the new version of SA, AWL is disabled by default.
However, no mention of this is made in news or changelogs. One of those
should inform SA users that if they want to continue using AWL with this 
version,
they need to add "loadplugin Mail::SpamAssassin::Plugin::AWL" to a local.pre; or
alternatively remove AWL configuration lines from local.cf, or else the upgrade
fails.

Thanks
Matthew
