Thank you for taking the time to file a bug report.

I was not able to reproduce your issue in a clean LXD container running
Ubuntu 20.04. Checking the logs I noticed the following:

----
Warning: Fake start-stop-daemon called, doing nothing.
/usr/sbin/policy-rc.d returned 101, not running 'start spamassassin.service'
invoke-rc.d: policy-rc.d denied execution of start.
Setting up sa-compile (3.4.4-1ubuntu1.1) ...
Running sa-compile (may take a long time)

Warning: Fake start-stop-daemon called, doing nothing.
chmod: cannot access '/var/lib/spamassassin/compiled': No such file or directory
dpkg: error processing package sa-compile (--configure):
 installed sa-compile package post-installation script subprocess returned 
error exit status 1
----

My first question to you is if you made any change to the policy-rc.d,
it is returning 101 which means action forbidden by policy. This is not
the default behave I am seeing in my local tests. I am not sure but
maybe this might be related to the fact that
/var/lib/spamassassin/compiled does not exist. Interestingly, if you
check the sa-compile postinst script it runs chmod on this directory
only if it exists, I do not know what happened during its installation
in your system. Did you manually change anything related to the debian-
spamd user and group? Or to the permissions of the mentioned directory?

Since there is not enough information in your report to begin triage or to
differentiate between a local configuration problem and a bug in Ubuntu, I
am marking this bug as "Incomplete". We would be grateful if you would:
provide a more complete description of the problem, explain why you
believe this is a bug in Ubuntu rather than a problem specific to your
system, and then change the bug status back to "New".

For local configuration issues, you can find assistance here:

** Changed in: spamassassin (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Incomplete
