Subject: uninitialized value in NetAddr/IP/Util/ipv6_n2d.al reported in SpamAssassin
I have SpamAssassin with Mail::SPF installed, which has since NetAddr::IP updated to 4.023 (and currently with 4.024) generates messages like the ones below when SpamAssassin is processing a mail item: Jan 29 10:51:11 goalkeeper spamd[13921]: Use of uninitialized value $NetAddr::IP::Util::n2d_format in sprintf at ../../blib/lib/NetAddr/IP/Util.pm (autosplit into ../../blib/lib/auto/NetAddr/IP/Util/ipv6_n2d.al) line 356. Jan 29 10:51:11 goalkeeper spamd[13921]: Use of uninitialized value $NetAddr::IP::Util::n2d_format in sprintf at ../../blib/lib/NetAddr/IP/Util.pm (autosplit into ../../blib/lib/auto/NetAddr/IP/Util/ipv6_n2d.al) line 356.

This is with perl 5.10.0 on Fedora 9. I'm not sure where the problem is here as I'm not a perl programmer but I think the most likely place is in NetAddr::IP, hence I'm reporting this here.

Without more information it is difficult to address this issue. It look from the message like SpamAssassin is passing an empty argument to NetAddr::IP. This is also a very old version of NetAddr::IP. The current version is 4.0.32 Please let the SpamAssassin team know about this and give them my email so we can reproduce the error and fix which ever end is broken. michael@insulin-pumpers.org On Thu Jan 29 06:09:52 2009, paul@city-fan.org wrote: Show quoted text

I think this is probably resolved already. I'm now using NetAddr::IP 4.030 and spamassassin 3.3.1 and haven't seen this problem for a long time. It's a similar story with the related debian bugs: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=517361 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=512372
