warn: Use of uninitialized value $opt{"syslog-socket"} in lc at /usr/local/bin/spamd line 444

[Marco Beishuizen <mb...@xs4all.nl>]

Hi,

When spamd is started at boot time I get the error:

...
warn: Use of uninitialized value $opt{"syslog-socket"} in lc at 
/usr/local/bin/spamd line 444
...

It has been there for a long time but doesn't seem to be damaging, but I 
was wondering what it means, and if I can get rid of it.

Thanks and regards,
Marco

It's innocent. Fixed in 3.3.2 and in trunk.

I don't have anything spamd related in syslog.conf.

Yes, it's the latest portversion (4.8.0)
