[Pkg-sympa-devel] Bug#863701: sympa: insists that cookie has changed when it hasn't

Hi,

Confirmed.

>What are the permissions of the cookie file?

640 owned by sympa:sympa

I have placed debugging prints into Conf.pm and found that $current is empty right at the beginning of cookie_changed. It seems the `head... command is not evaluated.

I placed the cookie in the config file directly, which makes it working again.
