[Pkg-cron-devel] Proposed update to cron for Wheezy - freeze exception request

[Javier Fernández-Sanguino Peña]

Dear Release Managers,

I have prepared a new cron release (3.0pl1-124) which includes fixes for the
following bugs:

 - #679106 - critical - /etc/init.d/cron stop may kill unrelated processes
 - #679062 - important - remove obsolete /etc/cron.daily/standard on upgrade

It also includes some minor fixes (documentation and/or lintian fixes). All
the changes have been pushed to Debian cron's GIT repository [1].

Since this version fixes the above bugs I would like to ask the Release Team
to grant a freeze exception for this version.

I'm attaching the diff between both .diff.gz (generated using interdiff -z)
as well as a debdiff between the new package and the previous version for
your consideration.

Please let me know if I can upload this new package version to unstable.

Thanks

Javier
