It works that way in my rules commit test script, which disables a bunch
of plugins in sequence to check for errors like that.

Are you sure the plugin is really disabled?

yes, I've disabled it by removing the loadplugin statement in the
configuration. It's possible to trigger this behaviour with a fresh
install on Debian Buster.

I opened a bugreport [1]

Yeah, I saw that. It's *possible* that I don't see the problem because I'm
running my sandbox lint tests against trunk, where the capabilities do all
exist.

I confirmed it occurs with 3.4.5 pre 1 and with 4.0 trunk and that it
does NOT stop sa-update or a lint check.

It's a noisy annoyance.  I'm guessing there is no stack or a break in
the stack for the linting.

What the heck, then? I wonder why I'm not getting that error...

Are you using an installed version of SA because the t for has some code
that enables certain plugins?

No, this is from my SVN sandbox. That script doesn't run the t tests for
this, it changes a scratch .pre file and runs a regular "spamassassin
--lint" in a loop, oncxe for each plugin.

There is no doubt in my mind that millions of lives could have been
saved if the people were not "brainwashed" about gun ownership and
had been well armed. ... Gun haters always want to forget the Warsaw
Ghetto uprising, which is a perfect example of how a ragtag,
half-starved group of Jews took 10 handguns and made asses out of
the Nazis. -- Theodore Haas, Dachau survivor
