Package: apticron
Version: 1.1.27
Severity: important
Yesterday the timezone in the UK changed from GMT to BST. This happened
at 0100 on March 28 2010
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_Summer_Time) and I believe is
related to output below from cron:
/etc/cron.daily/apticron:
date: invalid date `1:52'
run-parts: /etc/cron.daily/apticron exited with return code 1
It appears someone reported something similar last year:
http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg635747.html
I suggest changing the time apticron runs to 0252 from 0152 here:
/etc/cron.d/apticron
# cat apticron
# cron entry for apticron
52 1 * * * root test -x /usr/sbin/apticron && /usr/sbin/apticron --cron
Thanks,
Imran-UK

This issue was fixed in #522961 (apticron 1.1.31). So, I'm closing this bug.
Unfortunately this annoyance is present in 1.1.27, which is the apticron
version in Lenny.
