IOW, while I run crontab -e on bookworm, inside my emacs session,
I want a subshell to run crontab -l, but the latter has to run on

would do that.
"So it's a good thing I don't need to, since I've got all the
materials I need in my home directory, under ~/.cron"
Try running :
ssh user@bullseye crontab -l
It will locally list the crontab from remote user "user".
Note I've never used emacs, so dunno if ssh is allowed !
I too saw a plea for halp at first. At first I was derping out a reply
"Well David, since the bullseye system isn't running, you just
mount..."
But nope. Mirage!
Just rhetorical puzzlement implying an unspoken conclusion: "And
*that's* why we keep all the cron things on our home partition."
