Description Matt Whitlock 2020-09-08 04:17:23 UTC
sys-process/cronie ebuild currently has:

pkg_setup() {
	enewgroup crontab
}

This results in the "crontab" group potentially being assigned a different GID from system to system.

I request that sys-process/cronie be migrated to GLEP 81:

Seems to be fixed, as all current testing versions have migrated to GLEP 81.
