Package: spampd
Version: 2.30-17
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable


When apt-get tried to start the daemon, it failed with an error
indicating a missing } or ].

I found an obvious missing } in a function, added it, but then it
complained that $homedir was global but had to be an a package
namespace.  Adding a my $homdir line where the other neighbor variables
are declared silenced that error but replaced it with further errors.

(It appears $homedir needs to be a ref to a string rather than a
string...)

I forced a download to -16 but manually downloading the deb and invoking
dkpg --install on it.  That version works.
