Title:
  Installing systemd-cron removes ubuntu-standard

Status in systemd-cron package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in ubuntu-meta package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Installing systemd-cron removes ubuntu-standard, which has a
  dependency to cron.

  # apt show systemd-cron
  Package: systemd-cron
  Version: 1.5.12-1
  [...]
  Provides: anacron, cron-daemon
  [...]
  Conflicts: anacron, cron-daemon
  Replaces: anacron, cron
  [...]

  # apt show ubuntu-standard
  Package: ubuntu-standard
  Version: 1.407
  [...]
  Depends: busybox-static, cpio, cron, dmidecode, dnsutils, dosfstools, ed, file, ftp, hdparm, info, iptables, language-selector-common, libpam-systemd, logrotate, lshw, lsof, ltrace, man-db, mime-support, parted, pciutils, popularity-contest, psmisc, rsync, strace, time, usbutils, wget
  [...]

  Is there a reason to why cron is not in the Provides field?
