[Touch-packages] [Bug 1316036] Re: cron package does not install MTA
Apparently the MTA dependency in Ubuntu's cron has been demoted from Recommends (as it is in Debian), to a Suggests, so this bug should be re-assigned to Ubuntu's installation documentation. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to cron in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1316036 Title: cron package does not install MTA Status in “cron” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: I just did a fresh install of trusty and deliberately made a failing entry in the crontab: * * * * * mkdir /qwer/qwer In /var/syslog, this results in: May 4 16:04:01 dekker CRON[2395]: (root) CMD (mkdir /qwer/qwer) May 4 16:04:01 dekker CRON[2394]: (CRON) info (No MTA installed, discarding output) When I look in the documentation (https://help.ubuntu.com/14.04 /installation-guide/amd64/ch08s05.html), it says: For this reason the packages exim4 and mutt will be installed by default (provided you did not unselect the “standard” task during the installation). exim4 is a combination MTA/MDA that is relatively small but very flexible.
