Package: systemd-cron
Version: 1.5.4-2
Severity: wishlist
With cron the environment variables are all placed in one place instead
of being individually defined in each cron job. With systemd-cron, each
generated service gets an individually generated Environment property
instead of inheriting the same environment variables as every other
cron job. This should be changed to use EnvironmentFile in .service so
that each cron job does not duplicate the set of environment variables.

Hi Paul,
I'm now closing this bug.
As I understand, the general meaning of "wontfix" is that the maintainer
won't fix himself the bug but let somehow the door open to someone else
to fix the bug.
I'm now in the Python -> C rewrite of this tool and I realise/regret
some dubious feature I have added/accepted over the years
that make the whole thing more complex than needed
and increase the maintenance cost.
So this one would be denied as a Debian patch
and also as an upstream patch too.
A review of the version currently in sid is welcome.
Greetings,
