On systemd systems, aide already uses a systemd timer. Given that the users of other init systems have to do manual work anyway, I intend to fully drop the cron dependency with one of the next uploads. Is that the right thing to do from your point of view, and would you recommend doing so? For the time being, I have committed the change recommended by you. > On my side I have added to systemd-cron an ignore rule for aide-common: > > https://salsa.debian.org/detiste-guest/systemd-cron/-/commit/356bfedd393b0bd8663b7737e7ba5b987916b403 > > (this is a list of cron job that does > "[ -d /run/systemd/system ] && exit 0") As my cron job is using a slightly different idiom, would I make things easier for you if I wrote "[ -d /run/systemd/system ] && exit 0" explicitly instad of my if construct?
