My cron.daily seems to be working OK. In /usr/share/man/man5 I have a symlink called "aliases.5.bz2", and in /usr/share/man/man1 I have symlinks "mailq.1.bz2" and "newaliases.1.bz2" The links point to, respectively: /etc/alternatives/mta-aliasesman /etc/alternatives/mta-mailqman /etc/alternatives/mat-newaliasesman Could you have missed an update perhaps?
