Re: sa-update in spamassassin 3.1.0

Thanks, Phil.  I appreciate your linking to the specific bug number.  
Searching Bugzilla is something that I'm still a novice at doing.

It stinks that the version in volatile-sloppy (3.1.0) doesn't support 
sa-update, but it makes sense, given that the version in testing is 
3.1.1.  Looks like we have some more research to do if we want to use 
sa-update.
