I am considering using shepherd timers as crontab replacement. But I want to first make sure they work correctly on time, timezone and daylight-saving changes. In my experience with systemd, it can truly be a minefield, e.g.
https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/5595 - timers not running on the day of DST change https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/8647 - timers not running for entire hour after DST change https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/8233 - timers running in wrong timezone https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/16732 - editing a timer leads to its spurious trigger I also recall many bugs with RandomizedDelaySec, but shepherd and cron have no equivalent feature, so ignoring that. Can someone confirm that shepherd timers do not have the same bugs? And if so, make a note about that in the user manual? Thanks.
