Package: cron-apt
Version: 0.3.0
Severity: serious

On deinstallation (not purge) of cron-apt on an etch system,
/etc/cron.daily/cron-apt is left as a dangling symlink, which
breaks policy.

Please either remove the symlink on deinstallation and readd it on
reinstallation, or install a script instead which exits silently and
without error if the cron-apt binary is not present anymore.

Version: 0.3.0

Hi Martin

I downloaded the 0.3.0 version from stable and grepped for 'dail'

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/svn/fsp/t/cron-apt$ grep -rin dail *
README:19: 04 in the morning you can create a symbolic link from 
/etc/cron.daily/cron-apt
README:23:  ln -s /usr/sbin/cron-apt /etc/cron.daily/cron-apt
patches/mail_on_changes.txt:39:hourly, while the normal daily cronjob still has 
MAILON="upgrade".
patches/mail_on_changes.txt:42:archive, and from there on on a daily basis.

The only match is in the README file.

As it has been created manually by the administrator I can hardly
see that the package should remove that file.

Therefore I'm closing this bug now.

Regards,

// Ola
