thanks for filling this bug report (and sorry for not having responded so
long)!

agreed.

nice. did you notice any other problems / missing features without cron
installed?
I'm also wondering how to both ship the crontab entries for systems not
running systemd while at the same preventing dual runs via systemd timer
and cron. I'd appreciate pointers or insight on this!
OTOH I've tagged "#1003862 munin-node fails to start on traditional sysvinit
system" as wontfix, so maybe I should not bother about the non-systemd case
and just drop those crontab files (or ship them as examples..)
