I will look into that, but it would still be nice to have some examples for style. I suppose if I get around to it I'll write a script and send it to the list for critique (Or if you write one, I'll use it as an example for future ones that I write). > You are the author of the recipe, use Copyright year/name/email. I was meaning to ask about that. Some projects request that contributions to certain components be placed under copyright of the chief maintainer for logistical reasons. > The 'install' command is valid, but this is a non-standard command. I will take a note of that. > Are you sure that the CRONTAB group must be part of the "users" group?. This option defines which users are allowed to edit their own crontabs. This seems like a reasonable default. > Question, the installation (result) includes the "run-parts" script?. Yes. This is used to run everything in a directory. It can be useful, and it is provided in the "extra" directory of the tarball as "run-cron". It seems reasonable to include it in the package since it is used by the default crontab to run the hourly/daily/weekly/monthly tasks. I also just noticed that I messed up the directory names for those directories. I will send a corrected version later when I get around to it, hopefully tonight. -Alan On Mon, May 1, 2017 at 3:46 PM, Matias Fonzo <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Alan, > > On Sun, 30 Apr 2017 19:05:28 -0400 > Alan Beadle <[email protected]> wrote: > >> >> I made a recipe for dcron.
