That error is procuded by the cron.postinst code that is called by dpkg-reconfigure. I wonder, however, why are you running this command since cron does not do any configuration (through debconf). So it does not actually make any sense to call dpkg-reconfigure. What do you want to reconfigure with cron? I'll leave the bug open, but I'm reducing it's severity since this (cryptic) error message does not prevent in any way the package from working. > Quit annoying with "dpkg-reconfigure -a" What do you mean by this??
