Package: libconfig-crontab-perl Version: 1.41-1 Severity: normal While this module can conceivably be useful without cron installed, its normal use is to manipulate active crontab entries. The read() and write() methods call the crontab(1) command from the cron package by default. It therefore looks like the package should at least Recommend cron.
At least the write() method doesn't fail too gracefully if crontab(1) isn't available: $ perl -MConfig::Crontab -e 'Config::Crontab->new->write' Use of uninitialized value $crontab in scalar chomp at /usr/share/perl5/Config/Crontab.pm line 307. -- Niko Tyni nt...@debian.org
