I updated many packages yesterday, including cron. Now I'm getting

I have no idea what these error messages are trying to tell me. Is there
something wrong with my crontab?
Cron settings changed [1], as a result, those commands launched by
cron that fail (and are logged in syslog) or print information to
standard output are sending mails
So go to see which scripts fails from cron entries and fix them to
return 0 (when they do their work) if you don't want this message
