Package: cron
Version: 3.0pl1-173
Severity: minor
X-Debbugs-Cc: none, Francesco Potortì <[email protected]>

When cron is restarted by systemd, it writes to syslog:

2023-08-24T06:24:52.939290+02:00 tucano (cron)[3821491]: cron.service: 
Referenced but unset environment variable evaluates to an empty string: 
EXTRA_OPTS

I see that the variable is mentioned in /etc/default/cron, but only in 
comments, so it is not set (or unset) there.

Thank you for your work
