Public bug reported:

I've upgraded a server running Ubuntu 12.04 LTS to 14.04 LTS and now I'm
getting these emails from cron:

    From: Cron Daemon <[email protected]>
    To: [email protected]
    Subject: Cron <root@fridge> test -x /usr/sbin/anacron || ( cd / && 
run-parts --report /etc/cron.daily )
    Date: Thu, 28 Apr 2016 08:06:26 +0300 (EEST)

    /etc/cron.daily/amavisd-new:
    Please run this cronjob as user amavis
    run-parts: /etc/cron.daily/amavisd-new exited with return code 1

I see that the amavisd-new package has two cron scripts:

    $ dpkg -S amavisd-new|grep /etc/cron
    amavisd-new: /etc/cron.daily/amavisd-new
    amavisd-new: /etc/cron.d/amavisd-new

The one in /etc/cron.d/amavisd-new already runs the commands as user
'amavis', so it looks like the upgrade left a stale cron script lying
around.
