** Description changed:
+ [Impact]
+
+ * Perl version in Artful complains about deprecated regex usage in
+ spamassassin. This works but floods consoles and status mails.
+
+ * Fix is a backport of the small upstream change
+
+ [Test Case]
+
+ * simply run sa-learn in any way, for example
+ $ sa-learn --help
+ In unfixed versions you'll see the following all over the place (also
+ on install and in status mails)
+
+ Unescaped left brace in regex is deprecated here (and will be fatal
+ in Perl 5.30), passed through in regex; marked by <-- HERE in m/^(.{
+ <-- HERE ,200}).*$/ at
+ /usr/share/perl5/Mail/SpamAssassin/PerMsgStatus.pm line 923.
+
+ * these should allow someone who is not familiar with the affected
+ package to reproduce the bug and verify that the updated package fixes
+ the problem.
+
+ [Regression Potential]
+
+ * sa-learn worked in some tests, but there could be unexpected
+ cases where this breaks by very slight behavior changes.
+ OTOH the change is upstream a while now, so the chance it
+ really broke anything is low.
+ Also the change is essentially 1 chomp moved and 3 pattern matches
+ adapted to new syntax - so the amount that slips our review thoughts
+ should be low.
+
+ [Other Info]
+
+ * n/a
