HI, An "interesting" consequence of this bug is that unattended upgrades are triggered from cron, so when the cron package is automatically upgraded to the latest version, the upgrade gets killed and leaves the cron package in a broken state that "configure -a" doesn't fix but "dpkg -i cron.deb" does. I don't know if there was a way of not causing this, but it's extremely unfortunate as this means any machine using unattended upgrades has it's cron package already in a broken state that requires manual action to fix.
