I don't use procmail, so my error messages were different, but I was not
able to make the latest Debian 2.6.* work with 1.1a6. When I was using
Squeeze, I had to run against python 2.5 to make 1.1a6 work.
That trick no longer works in Wheezy, but I have had success with Skip's
latest 1.1b1 found at
http://pypi.python.org/pypi?:action=display&name=spambayes
<http://pypi.python.org/pypi?:action=display&name=spambayes> testing
against python 2.5, 2.6, and 2.7.
The 1st thread is the Squeeze thread and the 2nd is the Wheezy thread.

A couple of days ago I upgraded my server from Debian Lenny to Debian
Squeeze. Since then I'm seeing these lines in my procmail.log:
Traceback (most recent call last):

My best guess is that the Debian upgrade included an upgrade of Python,
and that this is related to the messages that I'm seeing. This is my
current version of Python:
$ python --version
Python 2.6.6
According to the 1.0.4 release notes, the 1.1 version is built with Python
2.4.
According to the 1.1a6 release notes, Python>= 2.4 is required. (your
work, Skip)
My questions are:
* is SpamBayes 1.1a6 compatible with Python 2.6.6?
* if yes: what is my next course of action to make it work again?
* if no: how can I help? I have never written anything in Python but how
hard can it be?
