reopen 513379
thanks
3.0pl1-107 unfortunately contains a very poor fix for bug #513379. The
whole *point* of -i was so that you could alias 'crontab' to 'crontab -i'
to stop fat finger moments from removing your entire crontab file (bug
#414048 and numerous others). Thus -i needs to work regardless of other
commandline options (and thus it will be a noop for most operations) for
there to be any point whatsoever to -i. Otherwise you might as well
remove '-i' and reopen #414048.
The *correct* fix for #513379 would be to fix the manpage to say e.g.:
usage: crontab [ -u user ] [ -i ] [<file> | { -l | -r | -e }]
