>Description:
The description of weekly argument says it usually occurs on Sunday mornings:
weekly Perform the standard weekly periodic executable run. This usu-
ally occurs on Sunday mornings.
But both the default /etc/crontab and crontab from EXAMPLES section of periodic(8) are configured to run it on Saturday:
15 4 * * 6 root periodic weekly
or
0 3 * * 6 root periodic weekly
>How-To-Repeat:
man periodic
>Fix:
Change the sentence "This usually occurs on Sunday mornings." to "This usually occurs on Saturday mornings.".
