This has at lest three undesireable side effects: 1) /var/spool/spamd often contains precious databases, for instance auto-whitelists collected over extended periods. These should certainly not go away after uninstall. 2) /var/spool/spamd is the home directory of the "spamd" user; it is created upon "mkuser spamd" and will be removed safely by a "rmuser spamd". Actually the port deinstall advises to do so manually, so there is absolutely no need to fiddle with it during automatic port deinstall. 3) Once /var/spool/spamd is removed after a (current) port deinstall, it is gone and will not be recreated during a fresh port re-install. This will lead to lots of error messages when running SpamAssassin under the "spamd" user, because its home directory is gone. And the databases mentioned above won't be re-created anyway... >How-To-Repeat: Deinstall, see if /var/spool/spamd is still there. It's not. :-( >Fix: Back out r319458. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
