Package: spamassassin
Version: 3.4.0-1
Severity: normal
Tags: upstream
After today's upgrade in Sid to 3.4.0 it no longer can find a working
channel. After trying several things I purged spamassassin entirely
and then installed it again fresh. The problem persisted. I ran:
$ sa-update --debug --gpghomedir /var/lib/spamassassin/sa-update-keys
channel: could not find working mirror, channel failed
The problem is upstream. I am posting this bug to Debian so that
others looking for the problem will have a log of it.
The problem is:

channel: could not find working mirror, channel failed
Checking manually finds:
$ dig 0.4.3.updates.spamassassin.org +short txt
"1567423"
Previously for version 3.3.2 was:
$ dig 2.3.3.updates.spamassassin.org +short txt
"1568594"
It appears that the upstream release isn't in sync with the mirrors.
This has been reported and will hopefully be resolved soon.
Downgrading to 3.3.2-7 in testing worked around the problem by using
the previous version.
apt-get install spamassassin=3.3.2-7
apt-mark hold spamassassin
As soon as the upstream mirror issue is resolved then the package can
be unheld and the upgrade should be fine.
apt-mark unhold spamassassin
apt-get upgrade
Thank you for maintaining spamassassin in Debian!

This problem has been resolved. The upstream sa-update mirrors all
appear to be functional. I am marking this bug as done.
