As of Ubuntu 9.10, cron uses upstart rather than traditional
initscripts, and the offending code has been removed. Marking Fix
Released.

package cron 3.0pl1-100ubuntu2 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess
post-installation
Hi!
Ups, you are right...the fast solution have to be:
mv /usr/sbin/update-rc.d /usr/sbin/update-rc.d-ok
echo update-rc.d-ok cron defaults /usr/sbin/update-rc.d
chmod 755 /usr/sbin/update-rc.d
apt-get install cron
mv /usr/sbin/update-rc.d-ok /usr/sbin/update-rc.d
Prem, thanks for your
I think this
echo update-rc.d cron defaults /usr/sbin/update-rc.d
should be
echo update-rc.d-ok cron defaults /usr/sbin/update-rc.d

package cron 3.0pl1-100ubuntu2 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess
post-installation script returned error exit status 1
Hi!
problem was the script postinst inside den package. There was a line:
update-rc.d cron multiuser 89 11 /dev/null
The syntax for update-rc.d is not correct so that you get the
errormessage.
Fast solution (dangerous if you do a typo!):
mv /usr/sbin/update-rc.d /usr/sbin/update-rc.d-ok
** Description changed:
Binary package hint: cron
Don't know cause but cron appears not able to upgrade while an existing
version is running. I never use cron so it must have been set up at
installation to do something. I think my version is 8.4 but this has
been the case since
