Packaging Guidelines for Cron Files says to use Requires: crontabs since the crontabs package requires /etc/cron.d itself, which is provided by cron daemon packages (like cronie). But the former no longer appears to be true--Fedora 28's crontabs package does not require /etc/cron.d (but cronie does provide it). How should this guideline be updated? https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/CronFiles/ Cron Job Files Packaging ... Packages with cron job files must have an explicit Requires: crontabs. Since crontabs requires /etc/cron.d and all cron daemon packages create (and own) that directory, crontabs serves as a virtual requires for cron daemon functionality.
