  • Bug#265367: tomsg /var/log/cron-apt/mail doesn't always exist

    From Marc Haber@1:229/2 to All on Fri Aug 13 00:00:14 2004

    Package: cron-apt
    Version: 0.0.27
    Severity: normal

    Hi,

    in some circumstances, /var/log/cron-apt/mail doesn't exist when tomsg /var/log/cron-apt/mail is called. This leads to a cat error message.
    cron-apt needs to verify if the file to be catted actually exists.

    Greetings
    Marc

    Hello

    First I did not understand. But then I looked closer and saw that I had
    missed something. Fixed now.

    Regards,
