Public bug reported:
I'm using Linux Mint 18 Sarah, which is based on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, which
uses the Ubuntu cron package version 3.0pl1-128ubuntu2.
Expectation:
-----------
11 23 * * 1-5 command
To run command from monday to friday on 11 past 23.
Observation:
-----------
Doesn't run.
* 23 * * 1-5 command # WORKS - every minute at 23 o' clock
11 * * * 1-5 command # WORKS - 11 past every hour
11 23 * * 1-5 command # Does NOT work
Work around:
-----------
Only schedule jobs in the second half hour (e.g. 44 minutes past) is
possible using this hack:
*/44 23 * * 1-5 # WORKS
** Affects: cron (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: New
