I would argue this is an OS dependent issue and is a downstream issue. sa-update does not currently change the umask as best I can tell. So if you want a umask of 022, set your os umask to 022 globally or for your account. Or, if needed write a wrapper script to launch sa-update after setting a system appropriate umask. This might be a good thing to document but I don't see it as a bug for sa-update. Out of curiosity, what was the workaround in debian? I couldn't find anything really pointing to the fix. I'm guessing it's what I described above as shown in trunk in debian/spamassassin.cron.daily which sets umask 022 before calling sa-update. So a simple script for you that does the same would likely be in order. -- Configure bugmail: https://issues.apache.org/SpamAssassin/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
