Hello,

I recently tried to make a package of dcron to replace cron:

Package: dcron
Architecture: any
Depends: ${shlibs:Depends}
Recommends: exim | smail | sendmail | mail-transport-agent
Conflicts: cron
Provides: cron
Replaces: cron
...

However, this doesn't really work with logrotate for example, which depends on 
cron (>= 3.0pl1-53). I tried:

...
Provides: cron 4.0.0
...

Because I thought it was the version number why it didn't work. How do I solve 
this? Is there a need for a virtual package cron?

Sjoerd
