https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2350109 --- Comment #11 from Alexandre Detiste <alexandre.detiste@xxxxxxxxx> --- The security model is not the same on Debian & Fedora. On Debian, /var/spool/cron/crontabs/ is owned by group 'crontab', this job is actualy done by 'cron-daemon-common'. On Fedora /var/spool/cron is own by the cron implementation. Which might make the job easier or harder. Please try to switch back and forth between cronie and systemd-cron and see wether non-root user crontabs all still work. [root@fedora ~]# rpm -qf /var/spool/cron systemd-cron-2.5.1-1.fc43.x86_64 [root@fedora ~]# ls /var/spool/cron/ -dl drwx-wx--T. 2 root root 18 10 mar 15:55 /var/spool/cron/ $ ls /var/spool/cron/crontabs/ -ld drwx-wx--T 2 root crontab 4096 20 sep 2023 /var/spool/cron/crontabs/ $ lsb_release -a Distributor ID: Debian These might help setting up similar setting if desired https://salsa.debian.org/debian/cron/-/blob/master/debian/cron-daemon-common.tmpfile?ref_type=heads (new systemd-tmpfiles config) https://salsa.debian.org/debian/cron/-/blob/master/debian/cron-daemon-common.sysusers?ref_type=heads (new systemd-sysuser config) https://salsa.debian.org/debian/cron/-/blob/master/debian/cron-daemon-common.postinst?ref_type=heads (beware, lots of legacy) Have a look there too: https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/cronie/blob/rawhide/f/cronie.spec /usr/bin/crontab should work for all users even if you don't use it yourself and you will have to learn how it works I'm maintaining this for 10 years because I first wanted to remove cron; I'm used to this paradox. All in all that's the reason I never applied for packaging this myself, I only spin up my almost empty Fedora VM once a year or so and this needs more field testing -- You are receiving this mail because: You are always notified about changes to this product and component You are on the CC list for the bug. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2350109 Report this comment as SPAM: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/enter_bug.cgi?product=Bugzilla&format=report-spam&short_desc=Report%20of%20Bug%202350109%23c11 -- _______________________________________________ package-review mailing list -- package-review@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to package-review-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/package-review@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
