Hello,
I was asked at work to modify apticron in order to send "no updates"
reports as it shows that :
1. apticron is working correctly
2. there is no problem to send email from the "apticronned" server
Indeed, without this "no updates" mail, you can't say if there is no
updates or if there is a mail problem.
I attached a patch with my modifications in apticron itself and in the
postint script (because I inluded some options in the config file).
I think I'm not the only one who could use this feature.
Regards,
Luc
