This particular problem doesn't concern me since my work does not depend on
sendmail. But I think that a logical error is being made here. For repeat
users, I don't see a real difference between updates and clean installs. I,
for one, am very willing to install a new release since it will clean out
accumulated junk. The only thing that I will keep from the old release is
/home. I don't think that I would find it acceptable that previously assumed
features just stopped working. Breaking cron or side effects of cron is
unacceptable.
If you only keep /home, you'll lose your crontab (since they're in
/var/spool/cron, not /home).
Note that in my example, I specifically talked about setting up [my]
cron[tab] again.
In the longer term I would like to see cron-like functionality
provided by and integrated with GNOME,
What about KDE, lxde, others?
