Cron is checking those files or directories: /etc/crontab system
crontab is usually for running daily, weekly, monthly jobs.
/etc/cron.d/ where are system cronjobs stored for different users.
/var/spool/cron that’s mean spool directory for user crontables.

Not really done reliably already ;-). But indeed, soon.

That's not what I meant. I meant the main cronie and fcron packages
should not require crontabs.

I mean not have /etc/crontab from a package but rather do it by
hand. In fact it is a dependency of fcron-watch-config, so with fcron it
is not really possible to have a hand made /etc/crontab out of a
package.
