Bug#1121023: sa-exim: local_scan() library failure\n/usr/lib/exim4/local_scan/sa-exim.so: undefined symbol: expand_string

Package: sa-exim
Version: 4.2.1-22+b1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Dear Maintainer,

sa-exim appears to be incompatible with exim4 4.99. I upgraded
yesterday, and my exim4 mainlog filled with messages like this:

2025-11-19 08:33:43 1vLl7n-0000000Ei4N-2kmb local_scan() library open failed - message temporarily rejected
2025-11-19 08:33:43 1vLl7n-0000000Ei4N-2kmb F=bounces+848413-f909-me@sgmail.github.com H=o6.sgmail.github.com [192.254.113.101] P=esmtps temporarily rejected by local_scan(): Local configuration error - local_scan() library failure\n/usr/lib/exim4/local_scan/sa-exim.so: undefined symbol: expand_string

I tried to rebuild sa-exim, but that fails with various compilation errors with exim4 4.99.

Downgrading to 4.98.2 made it work again.
