Hmm, that kind of message I take as, "If you don't do it you will be screwed, so you better do it." *smile*.
DEVELOPERS: Why don't you just add the cron jobs as a NECESSARY part of
the installation.
crontab editing isn't really standardized, either, and it's a real b-tch to figure out if the cron entries are already there, or have been installed and customized, or....
No, no, no!!! I don't want install scripts messing with my crontabs,
I'd rather set them up myself. What if you have a special palace to put
them in or want to tweak the times.?
this is not something I think should be automated. Too many ways to make life much worse. And given how often we run into "I thought it was optional" (as opposed to "read the instructions? why?'), I'm just not convinced it's broken.
