Package: apticron
Version: 1.1.56
Severity: wishlist
Dear Maintainer,
as a fix for bug 752506, bcron-run chose to provide cron-daemon rather
than cron, which looks correct to me.
Except that the new bcron-run and apticron don't work well together:
apt-get upgrade leaves me with the old version, apt-get upgrade suggests
replacing it with cron (which I don't want).
I realize that depending on cron-daemon isn't a perfect solution
since at apticron depends on /etc/cron.d, which isn't honored
by at least one of the packages that provide cron-daemon (systemd-cron).
It's not clear to me is systemd-cron can/will support cron.d, but it
seems like it won't; according to bug 752376, there's a project to fix
that, basically by parsing cron entries and write them in a format that
systemd understands.
It seems like apticron used cron.daily in the past, but then switched
away due to bug 587597; since the only problem was clarity, imho it
could just run both scripts with the --cron option, adding a comment
inside them along the lines of
"# yes, there are two scripts; it's to accomodate different setups.",
and that would allow depending on cron-daemon even for people running
the broken systemd-cron.
Any problem with that?
