How do I actually add these descriptions then...

I have quite a list of these in the output from spam assassin -D —lint

Thanks folks. As they are cosmetic, I'll worry about them later...
I now know how to fix it up though, so it wont take long.
I'll also check rule update is going on. 
thanks

Agreed. The right way to silence those warnings would be to learn what 
each rule does, write an accurate description, then commit it or submit 
a patch on the bug tracker.

Ok, thanks.
Everything is working now. and yes, spamassassin —lint returns nothing.

I had probably just got outputs confused somewhere along the line. The —lint -D log now also shows no warnings.

thanks

That's because you created descriptions for rules that don't exist.
Either you did something  wrong or the rules got removed.

Works for me

$ spamassassin --lint -D 2>&1 | awk '/ no description set for /{print "describe ",$12,"No description "}' > /tmp/descriptions.cf

$ head -n5 /tmp/descriptions.cf
describe  HK_LOTTO No description 
describe  SUBJ_GET_LAID No description 
describe  TVD_SPACE_RATIO No description 
describe  TVD_IP_OCT No description 
describe  DKIM_POLICY_SIGNALL No description

# cp /tmp/descriptions.cf /usr/local/etc/mail/spamassassin/

$ spamassassin --lint -D 2>&1 | awk '/ no description set for /{print "describe ",$12,"No description "}' | wc -l
  0


Did you try  spamassassin --lint ?

It's hard to see genuine problems if you lint with debug on.

In the original email I posted, I'm asking two questions.
1. I'm getting two warnings about nonexistent rules. Is this fixable? And
 2. why is lint reporting a random set of 13 missing descriptions when I have actually put those descriptions into local.cf?

As to the descriptions themselves, it's only a wild guess as to what some of them mean anyway, in the absence of any Spamassassin description. So putting something, anything, at least suppresses warnings. Or it should, but I find Spamassassin -D --lint is then misreporting some of them anyway.

I'm not one of the maintainers of Spamassassin, just a user trying to tweet local.cf

I know that; my point was that if he puts those lines into local config
they will override new descriptions from sa-update.

maybe *you* won't see them, others do

they are part of the report-headers instead something like 
"HTML_TITLE_SUBJ_DIFF No description available"

X-Spam-Report: Flag: No,
	* -0.1 SPF_PASS SPF: sender matches SPF record
	* -0.5 BAYES_40 BODY: Bayes spam probability is 20 to 40%
	*      [score: 0.3820]
	*  0.0 HTML_MESSAGE BODY: HTML included in message
	*  0.0 T_DKIM_INVALID DKIM-Signature header exists but is not valid
	*  0.5 DC_PNG_UNO_LARGO Message contains a single large png image

but the above descriptions are useless because "Spam check applied" 
don't tell you anything about the rule

What's the benefit of this? 

If someone gets around to creating descriptions for these rules you
wont see them.

I’ve added descriptions, grabbing the actual RULE name with awk, and creating the list that way.

{
	a=$12;
        print "describe " a " Spam check applied.";
}


The result is like this.
describe LONG_TERM_PRICE Spam check applied.
describe MULTIPART_ALT_NON_TEXT Spam check applied.
describe TVD_IP_OCT Spam check applied.
describe HK_NAME_DR Spam check applied.

etc etc

So fine. Now spamassassin -D —lint returns this - and I know the names are in the local.cf file.
, and apparently I now have two nonexistent rules.

This is the total list - BUT - each time I run the same command, it returns a slightly different set of about 13 names???

I do, every time before I check in, with various combinations of disabled 
plugins. I don't worry that much about cosmetic warnings, I'm primarily 
looking for things that will *kill* SA. That's bitten me before and it's 
extremely embarrassing.

DO NOT file a bug for those, they are cosmetic. Complain here on the users 
list.

they should be part of the rules itself and i don't understand why rule 
writes don't run "-D --lint" regulary *before* publish

"describe RULNE_NAME description" in local.cf if you really find it 
worth instead write a bugreport - if the rules disappear you get later 
warnings because the descriptions in your local.cf

well, because looking for warnings because local modifications is much 
easier when the stock install don't produce them at all

You *COULD* add descriptions for rules with missing descriptions in 
local.cf, but why bother?

Fixing those is on the rule maintainers, not you (unless any of those are 
referring to custom rules you added locally). They're also not fatal, just 
cosmetic.

I find the first one (score set for non-existent rule DUP_SUSP_HDR) 
surprising, though. DUP_SUSP_HDR is in the current published base rules, 
so it shouldn't be complaining about setting a score for it...

Are you sure you're getting rules updates?
