5.0.5-r1 provides a crontab file (first release to provide one) /etc/cron.daily/sysstat it contains entries like : 0 * * * * /usr/lib/sa/sa1 600 6 & 5 19 * * * /usr/lib/sa/sa2 -A & but looking to other files in this directory, this file should be a shell script (which is executed once a day) i use sys-apps/vixie-cron i suppose that for this to work, this file should be in /etc/cron.d, not /etc/cron.daily Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.
Fixed in CVS, thanks! Should reach the rsync mirrors shortly, please reopen this bug if there are still any problems.
a minor thing, to my mind, this is useless : fperms 0755 /etc/cron.d/sysstat as it is not a shell script and couldn't be executed. it's a left over from the past. that's the only issue i can see feel free to close if you consider it not important (as it won't hurt actually)
Fixed in CVS.
