--- Begin Message ---Package: cron Version: 3.0pl1-154 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer, The postrm script in the current version of the cron package assumes the presence of a dpkg-statoverride for /usr/bin/crontab, but no such statoverride is present on my systems. As a result when I try to 'purge' the cron package the process fails. Recipe to reproduce the issue: 1) cd /root 2) mkdir foo 3) debootstrap --variant=minbase --include=logrotate,systemd-cron bookworm 4) chroot /root/foo /bin/bash 5) apt remove --purge cron This results in the following output: Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree... Done The following packages will be REMOVED: cron* 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 1 to remove and 0 not upgraded. After this operation, 0 B of additional disk space will be used. Do you want to continue?
