Thanks again for an answer zentra. I got another idea from a
friend. He suggested to boot, and then on the bottom line that
is visible at the start write "linux 1". Then continue booting.
After bootup use yast, and remove spamassassin. Then boot again,
and reinstall spamassassin.

I did that, and again I have a working system.
