Public bug reported:
Upon upgrade to Precise from Oneiric, my custom cron jobs stopped
working.
Custom entries in '/etc/crontab' result in these errors:
Apr 19 14:59:01 hostname CRON[5898]: Permission denied
Apr 19 14:59:01 hostname CRON[5899]: Permission denied
Jobs in '/var/spool/cron/crontabs' are not executed either, but there
are no error messages.
I expected these jobs to run normally. Using full paths made no
difference. The commands run manually.
