Bug ID: 289099
Summary: /etc/crontab line 1 comment is wrong: easy fix
Product: Base System
Version: 14.3-RELEASE
Hardware: Any
OS: Any
Status: New
Keywords: patch
Severity: Affects Only Me
Priority: ---

Line 1 of /etc/crontab incorrectly says "root's crontab". No, it's the "system
crontab" which is actually handled specially. User root has (or can have) its
own, separate, crontab which would be in /var/cron/tabs/root.
I suggest:
--- crontab~ 2025-08-25 13:31:39.483083000 -0400
+++ crontab 2025-08-25 13:31:21.907434000 -0400
