Here is what I did:
Installation of run-parts:
Download the debianutils package (http://packages.debian.org/lenny/debianutils)
Unpack the tarball. Issue the commands:
./configure --prefix=/usr
make
cp run-parts /usr/bin/
cp run-parts.8 /usr/man/man8
The package contains a number of utility programs. I only wanted run-parts,
some of the other programs might be useful as well. Not sure if the
--prefix=/usr is needed or not. There may be options for configure and make
which can control the build better.
Configuring fcron:
mkdir -pv /etc/cron.{hourly,daily,weekly,monthly}
Create the file /etc/fcrontab with the contents
& 0 * * * * run-parts /etc/cron.hourly
& 0 15 * * * run-parts /etc/cron.daily
& 0 16 * * 3 run-parts /etc/cron.weekly
& 0 11 25 * * run-parts /etc/cron.monthly
Tell fcron to use the file
fcrontab /etc/fcrontab
