[Bug 1993037] Re: Ubuntu 22.04, debianutils moved run-parts into /usr/bin, breaking systemd-cron in the course

[Wladimir Mutel]

Yes, it is 22.04, added this into the summary and description.

** Summary changed:

- Ubuntu debianutils moved run-parts into /usr/bin, breaking systemd-cron in the course
+ Ubuntu 22.04, debianutils moved run-parts into /usr/bin, breaking systemd-cron in the course

** Description changed:

+ (Found in Ubuntu 22.04 LTS, also in 22.10)
  package debianutils keeps run-parts executable in /usr/bin/
  while package systemd-cron tries to find it in /bin/
  
  $ which run-parts
  /usr/bin/run-parts
  
  $ dpkg -S `which run-parts`
  debianutils: /usr/bin/run-parts
  
  $ grep =/bin/run /lib/systemd/system/cron*
  /lib/systemd/system/cron-daily.service:ExecStart=/bin/run-parts --report /etc/cron.daily
  /lib/systemd/system/cron-hourly.service:ExecStart=/bin/run-parts --report /etc/cron.hourly
  /lib/systemd/system/cron-monthly.service:ExecStart=/bin/run-parts --report /etc/cron.monthly
  /lib/systemd/system/cron-weekly.service:ExecStart=/bin/run-parts --report /etc/cron.weekly
  
  Because of that, cron-daily.serice gets info "failed" state soon after
  system reboot.
  
- Please resolve the problem to make systemd-cron more usable.
