Package: cron
Version: 3.0pl1-104
Severity: normal
File: /etc/cron.daily/standard
I finally tracked a problem down to cron.daily/standards: one of my disk
drives is pretty much always spun down, and I noticed repeatedly that
it spins up at some time during the night. It turns out it's because of
/etc/cron.daily/standard's desire to check the lost+found directories
on it. Now, admittedly, this is a relatively minor problem (although
desktop drives like the one I use don't like spin-ups/spin-downs and it
shortens their life expectancy), but really check lost+found is not
something to do once a day. It'd be *much* better to do it once per
boot.
In any case, I feel like it should at least be easy to turn it off.

This bug is no longer present in cron. It has been fixed in the 3.0pl1-123
version, which is unstable and in testing now, as the standard cron task has
been removed.
