systemd-cron attempts to be the shallowest possible wrapper around systemd. Can you please try to reproduce the problem without systemd-cron involved; by copying the .timer / .service / .sh triplet from /run/systemd/generator into /etc/systemd/system and see what happens when you do manually what cron-update.service would do. It does: - systemctl daemon-reload - systemctl restart <your_job>.timer (via cron.target) - systemctl reset-failed <your_job>.timer (hint: systemctl cat cron-update.service) If the same problem persists; then the bug is definitively in systemd itself.
