Source: cron
Binary: cron
Architecture: alpha
Version: 3.0pl1-43
Distribution: unstable
Urgency: medium
Maintainer: Christopher C. Chimelis <chris@classnet.med.miami.edu>
Description: 
 cron       - management of regular background processing
Changes: 
 cron (3.0pl1-43) unstable; urgency=medium
 .
   * Removed support for TMPDIR. This is due to the problem it causes
     with emacs -- emacs does different things with it's backup files
     depending on whether or not the file is in /tmp. Emacs probably ought
     to use TMPDIR instead of /tmp in its check. I've opened a "wishlist"
     bug for crontab to support TMPDIR.
     (closes: Bug#15985)
   * When USE_SIGCHLD is defined, before running user process, set handling
     for SIGCHLD to SIG_DFL, not SIG_IGN. Despite documentation that the
     default for SIGCHLD is ignore, the behaviour is different.
     (closes:Bug#17564,Bug#9075,Bug#16436,Bug#17814)
   * Moved allow and deny files from /var/spool/cron to /etc/cron.{allow,deny}
     (closes:Bug#14970)
   * filenames in /etc/cron.d must comply with run-parts naming convention -
     alpha-numeric, underscore, or hyphen. This ensures that conffile
     remains (e.g. package.dpkg-dist) files don't get run.
   * removed cronanacron command from /etc/crontab and distribution --
     replaced by /etc/cron.d/anacron file (from anacron package, not cron).
   * Documented /etc/cron.d dir in manpage and readme.debian
   * modified checksecurity.conf to not check auto file systems.
     (closes:Bug#8702)
   * crontab -u `whoami` now works. (closes:Bug#8702)
   * documented CRONTAB_NOHEADER in crontab.1
   * /etc/crontab now uses run-parts(8) --report switch. (closes:Bug#18273)
   * fixed initialization of oact in misc.c. (closes:Bug#17134)
   * converted to use debhelper rather than debmake.
   * changed date format in checksecurity so that we don't get false positives
     after six months. (closes:Bug#19025)
   * remove /etc/cron.{allow,deny} on purge
