I've done exactly that and committed the changes to git:

___

See: 
http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=pkg-cron/pkg-cron.git;a=commit;h=3165cda941e91c66510c447f634d6a263e1b2a19

I will upload a new package version as soon as possible
(unfortunately, might not be before the freeze).

Javier

Bug#679062: cron: should remove obsolete /etc/cron.daily/standard on upgrade

[Raphaël Hertzog]

Package: cron
Version: 3.0pl1-123
Severity: important

You recently dropped support for checking lost+found directory and thus
removed /etc/cron.daily/standard. Unfortunately, removing it from the
package doesn't remove it from the user's system...

$ ls -l /etc/cron.daily/standard 
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 2947 août   7  2011 /etc/cron.daily/standard
$ md5sum /etc/cron.daily/standard
a28d268048a6d0ab2903751578028470  /etc/cron.daily/standard
$ dpkg -s cron |grep /etc/cron.daily/standard
 /etc/cron.daily/standard a28d268048a6d0ab2903751578028470 obsolete

You should use "dpkg-maintscript-helper rm_conffile" to correctly remove
the file on upgrade (use debian/cron.maintscript with debhelper, see man
dh_installdeb).

TIA.

Cheers,
