This is halfway good and halfway bad.
In moving crontab_setgid from lib to libexec, you effectively evade the
moratorium and are entitled to also move from / to /usr. This is an
action you can do right now. The move from /lib to /usr/libexec prevents
the file loss scenario that spurred the moratorium.
In
https://github.com/systemd-cron/systemd-cron/commit/45e82678f62f523417b0c7f84d40ec7fcb1b864d,
you move the generators from / to /usr. This action is prohibited by
the moratorium and will have to be temporarily reverted in the
packaging (or the upload of the upstream release needs to be delayed).
