I think anacron (and the same for corn, at) should always be started,
regardless of AC or not.
It's the duty of the respective cron-job to determine, whether the sys
is on battery and whether the job is so important to have it run anyway.
Apart from that, I cannot believe that this severe problem hasn't been
fixed since 2007.
It makes anacron useless (at least in default config), thus I'm
raising the severity.
Regards,
Chris.
btw: Pascal, as a minor improvement: I think would be ok to remove the
check for anacron in the /etc/cron.*/0anacron scripts, wouldn't it?
If those scripts are there, than the package is installed thus anacron
is also there.
