This bug was fixed in the package cron - 3.0pl1-196ubuntu1
---------------
cron (3.0pl1-196ubuntu1) questing; urgency=medium
* Merge with Debian unstable (LP: #2110905). Remaining changes:
- d/control: move MTA to Suggests field
- d/cron.default: change to a deprecated message
- d/p/f/inherit-path.patch: add -P flag to inherit PATH from environment
- Inherit PATH by default
+ debian/cron.{init,service}: pass -P to cron by default.
+ debian/crontab.main: stop setting PATH explicitly.
cron (3.0pl1-196) unstable; urgency=medium
* Fixed a lot of inconsistencies in man pages cron(8), crontab(1) and
crontab(5), many thanks to Helge Kreutzmann's very detailed bug
report. Closes: #1102192
cron (3.0pl1-195) unstable; urgency=medium
* declared sensible-editor as the command used by `crontab -e` in the
manpage crontab.1; Closes: #1079207
* now all manpages are created by xsltproc from XML source files.
I checked that '[g|n]roff -mandoc -t -ww -b -z -K utf8 cron.8'
report no longer any error. Closes: #1085713
* declared that cron is lauched by systemd. Closes: #1086495
* as the changes suggested by Paul Wise <p...@debian.org> about
bug report #956953 are now reveted, due to the lack of implementation
and test, errors which were reported about the version 3.0pl1-190
in experimental are cleared. Closes: #1071709
* checked that the line "33 22 * * * expr $(date +\%s) ..." is no
longer produced by the source file debian/crontab.5.xml; instead,
% characters are properly escaped in the examples:
$ man -l debian/crontab.5 | grep '\\%'
0 4 8-14 * * test $(date +\%u) -eq 6 && echo "2nd Saturday"
0 * * * * [ "$(date +\%R)" = 00:00 ] && run_some_script
0 4 * * Sat [ "$(date +\%e)" = "$(LANG=C ncal ...
So this Closes: #1101921
