7. By Jamie Strandboge on 2009-05-12: * SECURITY UPDATE: cron does not check the return code of setgid() and
  initgroups(), which under certain circumstances could cause applications
  to run with elevated group privileges. Note that the more serious issue
  of not checking the return code of setuid() was fixed in 3.0pl1-64.
  (LP: #46649)
  - do_command.c: check return code of setgid() and initgroups()
  - CVE-2006-2607
6. By Martin Pitt on 2005-11-15: Resynchronise with Debian.
5. By LaMont Jones on 2005-05-02: Recommend: postfix | mail-transport-agent
4. By Thom May on 2004-10-27: Resynchronise with Debian.
3. By Nathaniel McCallum <email address hidden> on 2004-09-03: * Added versioned depend on lsb-base
* debian/cron.init: pretty initscript
2. By Steve Greenland <email address hidden> on 2001-10-01: * Add type usbdevfs to skipped "file systems" (this is /proc/bus/usb)
  (closes: #113186,#113187)
* Removed 'xfs' from list of skipped file system types. Unfortunately,
  it appears to be used by both the arla network file system and the SGI
  XFS filesystem, and I must make the conservative choice. (closes: #113234)
* Remove extra diff in checksecurity. (closes: 113950)
* Add type none to skipped "file systems" (--bind mounts) (closes: #111395)
1. By Steve Greenland <email address hidden> on 2001-10-01: Import upstream version 3.0pl1
