[Bug 333124] [NEW] cron-apt documentation a jumbled mess of missing information

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: cron-apt

Documentation and configuration information hopelessly jumbled and
largely missing

manpage states that "a summary of options" is included below, but it isn't
manpage refers to rules in /etc/cron-apt/action.d. Two are supplied by default. They are not documented.

cron-apt --help returns two options which are nowhere documented

/etc/cron-apt/config is identical to /usr/share/doc/cron-
apt/examples/config.gz. All operators are commented out.

These problems occurred in a Kubuntu jaunty environment:
~$ uname -a
Linux Xenophon 2.6.28-8-generic #24-Ubuntu SMP Wed Feb 18 20:36:18 UTC 2009 x86_64 GNU/Linux
