Either way, this bug should probably be re-assigned with Severity: minor

Yes, I think the severity can be lowered, but I wouldn't assign it perl yet. I think the real problem is that sa-update and/or sa-compile create files owned by root when they are run as root, which leads to strange permission problems when the cron script runs later on.

Running sa-update as root is what is recommended in Readme.Debian, but the cron script switches to debian-spamd.

I would change the title accordingly: "sa-update/sa-compile fail to set the correct ownership when run root"
