Hi, I have a different proposal upstream that propose to get rid of run-parts completely. https://github.com/systemd-cron/systemd-cron/issues/47
I like it in some ways because run-parts gets in the way of proper logging (it's exit-code is max of all process exit codes, error-mail is useless & one has to investigate what went wrong); but on the other way this means every daily|weekly|monthly jobs will be started simultaneously. Or maybe hopefully more & more packages would follow the way of APT's apt-daily.timer and /etc/cron.daily/ would then become an irrelevant empty shell. see: /etc/cron.daily/apt-compat see also: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=770440 BTW: ok for the initial "06:25, 06:47, 06:52"-like proposal; coupled with persistent=true feature, this is a saner default for regular users. > virtualized environment with many Debian systems. These could easily deploy systemd config overides in /etc > Different priorities I guess? Yup, it's hard to please different people with differents needs. Greetings, Alexandre Detiste
