TODO stuff
----------
- Split of standard tasks to cron-standard, preliminary packages
currently available at
http://people.debian.org/~jfs/cron-standard
but we need to handle the conffiles so that they don't get messed up
See bug #257393 and
Message-ID: <20050309142043.GB16617@dat.etsit.upm.es>
- Better behave with cron replacements, investigate how cron packages
(like fcron or bcron) can be installed/deinstalled without breaking
the system.
This might imply fixing #304036 (which might help fix #312614 too BTW)
- Debate changing the policy of /etc/cron.d being a drop-in for packages
only vs. a general drop-in for crontabs
Milestones
----------
- Convert source package to source format 3.0 (quilt)
The current cron source package is the result of a 1993 upstream and
17 years of commits. This organic growth must be normalized before an
upgrade to upstream cron-4.1 can be considered.
- Compare our resulting cron-3.0 patches to FreeBSD's where possible
This is intended as a safety measure; the goal is to identify any grave
errors or other larger issues in our patches so we don't carry them on
into cron-4.1.
- Review and update the ancient Debian packaging
Certain elements are heavily outdated and must be either brought
up-to-date, or dropped.
- Update to upstream cron-4.1
- Compare our resulting cron-4.1 to RHEL/SLES, with a focus on possible
security issues (SUID/SGID, SELinux, ...)
- Compare our resulting cron-4.1 to Fedora's cronie (a fork of ISC cron)
- Consider switching upstream to cronie, or at least grabbing some
of it's features such as INOTIFY support.
