https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=233874 Xin LI <delphij@FreeBSD.org> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Resolution|--- |Not Accepted Status|New |Closed CC| |delphij@FreeBSD.org Assignee|bugs@FreeBSD.org |delphij@FreeBSD.org --- Comment #3 from Xin LI <delphij@FreeBSD.org> --- Requiring `*.conf` is never a documented behavior and diverges from upstream and major Linux distributions. Are we installing crontab's with `.conf` extension? It seems to be a major disagreement with the naming convention required by LSB-Core-generic/sysinit and even inconsistent with what the base system is using (which is similar to what LSB have), so if we are doing it, it's probably a good time to stop doing so and adopt something similar to the major Linux distributions, that is basically [0-9A-Za-z_-]+. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.home | help
