cron (3.0pl1-119) unstable; urgency=low
The semantics of the -L option of the cron daemon have changed: from
now on, the value will be interpreted as a bitmask of various log
selectors, with "1" (log only the start of jobs) being the new default.
Additionally, since -117 (NEWS entry was overlooked), the LSBNAMES
variable in /etc/default/cron was merged with the EXTRA_OPTS variable
as it was redundant.

cron (3.0pl1-110) unstable; urgency=low
In the past, long-running jobs caused certain MTAs to time out,
resulting in no output being sent. Justin Pryzby's patch to fix this
has been included.
crontab(1) now refuses any crontabs missing a newline before EOF.
cron(8) now recovers from broken symlinks in /etc/cron.d. This fix
may cause power management issues (disk spin-ups), feedback welcome.

The checksecurity script is no longer included with the cron package:
it now has its own package, "checksecurity". If you liked the
functionality provided with that script, please install the new
package.
