Bug#1029140: cron-apt refuses to run when RUNSLEEP is set

Show all headers | View raw

Package: cron-apt
Version: 0.13.0.1
Severity: important
X-Debbugs-Cc: submit@bugs.debian.org

Dear Maintainer,
when running cron-apt as shipped it works normal, running at 4 am and sending an email when anything can be updated. But when adding the recommended RUNSLEEP variable to the config, the only thing that happens is throwing a kernel error at 4 am:

     2022-12-19T04:00:01.425628+01:00 ts CRON[75874]: (root) CMD (test -x /usr/sbin/cron-apt && /usr/sbin/cron-apt)
     2022-12-19T04:00:01.468596+01:00 ts kernel: [276052.628108] traps: cksum[75885] trap invalid opcode ip:562d9fe03cf5 sp:7ffd9b53fe20 error:0 in cksum[562d9fded000+17000]
     2022-12-19T04:00:02.525060+01:00 ts sSMTP[75887]: Sent mail for root@ts.domain.de (221 mailserver.de) uid=0 username=root outbytes=691

Even though it says a mail is sent, it's not received. Since cron-apt clearly doesn't run at all, that might be the reason. Running cron-apt manually with RUNSLEEP set with "cron-apt -s" works without problems.
