Package: cron
Version: 3.0pl1-115
When cron runs lvdisplay (lvm2 2.02.66-4) from a simple shell script
once every
evening, my Debian squeeze system consistently gives this kind of error:
File descriptor 5 (/tmp/tmpfYDdkby (deleted)) leaked on lvdisplay
invocation. Parent PID 3291: /bin/sh
This problem does not occur with lvm2 v2.02.39-7 on Debian lenny
systems that also run the same script every evening.
This report was first submitted as an lvm2 bug, #590290. However, the
maintainers found no fault with lvdisplay and suggested it be
reassigned to cron.

Description:
cron - process scheduling daemon
Closes: 602903 604181 606325
Changes:
cron (3.0pl1-116) unstable; urgency=high
.
* Upload with approval from Release Team to get RC bug fixes in Squeeze
(see http://lists.debian.org/debian-release/2010/12/msg00719.html)
* do_command.c, popen.c:
- Use fork() instead of vfork().
* do_command.c:
- Close an unused stream in the fork()ed child prior to exec'ing the
user's command, thereby avoiding an fd leak. Closes: #604181, LP: #665912
Previously to this, in conjunction with LVM, the fd leak may have the
effect of the user being spammed by warnings every time a cron job was
executed.
* crontab.5:
- Fixed the example demonstrating how to run a job on a certain weekday of
the month (date range was off-by-one). Also, the same example contained
a superfluous escape, resulting in wrong output. Closes: #606325
* cron.init:
- Added $named to Should-Start, in case @reboot jobs need DNS resolution.
Closes: #602903
- Added nslcd to Should-Start. LP: #27520
