Control: retitle -1 anacron: upgrade hangs for any jobs waiting to be run (anacron 2.3-48)
Note to Lin Qigang about https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1133304;msg=40 You should not put the title inside (single or double) quotes, and the command must not have word-wrapping.

Here the timer doesn't seem to be involved since anacron.timer has OnCalendar=*-*-* 07..23:30 It seems that running anacron is forced by the new "Type=oneshot" (→ "Anacron 2.3 started on ..."), but this is done in the foreground. -- Vincent Lefèvre <[email protected]> - Web: <https://www.vinc17.net/> 100% accessible validated (X)HTML - Blog: <https://www.vinc17.net/blog/> Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / Pascaline project (LIP, ENS-Lyon)
