It sounds to me like not a bug, since a minimal debootstrap
(debootstrap --variant=minbase bookworm target-dir) of Debian 12
does not include the "cron" package either. It's just a change.
Nothing in the base system needs cron any more.
Might not be a bug. Regardless, that was their response. If they
determine the package should not have been omitted, they'll fix their
image.
It is what it is.
Thanks
