Package: cron
Version: 3.0pl1-103
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
Cron keeps mailing me:
/etc/cron.daily/standard:
df: no file systems processed
The offending line is:
df -P --type=ext2 --type=ext3 --type=xfs
I don't have any mounted filesystems of those types, so df errors out.
The attached patch simply redirects df's stderr to /dev/null; I don't
know if that's a reasonable solution, but I'm using it now.
Thanks,
Corey
