Package: anacron Version: 2.3-34 Followup-For: Bug #1019554 Anacron seems to be failing for me recently also. But in my case, an additional factor has changed (besides the new version of anacron): I recently changed my power management settings to suspend my computer when idle.
I have a backup script in root's crontab (set using "crontab -e") that is supposed to run every night at 2am. Now the computer is asleep at that hour, and the script does not get run any time the next day either when the computer is awake. -- System Information: Debian Release: bookworm/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing'), (400, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 5.19.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/32 CPU threads; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages anacron depends on: ii libc6 2.34-7 ii lsb-base 11.2 Versions of packages anacron recommends: ii cron [cron-daemon] 3.0pl1-149 Versions of packages anacron suggests: ii dma [mail-transport-agent] 0.13-1+b1 ii powermgmt-base 1.37 ii rsyslog [system-log-daemon] 8.2208.0-1 -- no debconf information
