Package: cron
Version: 3.0pl1-114
Severity: minor
Extract from /usr/share/doc/cron/changelog.Debian.gz:
* debian/cron.pam:
- In addition to the reading /etc/security/pam_env.conf and
/etc/environment (obsolete config file) previous default,
cron will now also read /etc/default/locale in order to setup
the proper localisation environment for tasks.
When you install automatically some workstations with the debootstrap command
for example,
the cron package will be installed (Priority: important).
The locales package is not mandatory so the configuration file
/etc/default/locale may miss,
and cron do not execute any script from now.
I suggest to replace in /etc/pam.d/cron:
session required pam_env.so envfile=/etc/default/locale
by:
session optional pam_env.so envfile=/etc/default/locale
Thanks.
