Package: cron-apt
Version: 0.4.15
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

I have one system that updates clamav-data from cron-apt, and thus
updates multiple times daily. This is implemented by having
/etc/cron-apt/action.d/4-install-clamav-data with the contents
--assume-yes install clamav-data.

This, of course, sends mail multiple times daily.

It would be great to be able to configure cron-apt to only send mail
if this call of $APTCOMMAND has given a non-zero exit code, as if an
error happened.

This could be implemented by having a keyword inside the action.d file
or in the action.d file name (for example,
action.d/q4-install-clamav-data, triggering on the file name starting
with "q"), and by an additional condition in the output block starting
at "No error has occurred".

I would be willing to submit a patch once you have indicated which way
to indicate that this action.d item has to be quiet if no error occured.

Greetings
Marc
