anacron 2.3-14ubuntu1 source package in Ubuntu Linaro Evaluation Build

Changelog

anacron (2.3-14ubuntu1) maverick; urgency=low

  * Merge from Debian unstable, remaining changes:
    - Replace init script with Upstart job.  Do not start the job on
      installation, since anacron is run from cron or on boot to catch up.
    - Bump build-dependency on debhelper for Upstart-aware dh_installinit
  * Dropped changes, merged in Debian:
    - Remove acpi-support integration, we have used pm-utils for a long time.
    - debian/control: postfix -> default-mta.
    - Edited anacrontab(5)-manpage to correctly show how to continue on next
      line.
    - Remove informational message in lock.c:consider_job()
    - debian/pm-utils.{power,sleep}.d: install pm-utils hook that
      starts/stops anacron on suspend/resume
    - Demote anacron's Recommends of mail-transport-agent to a Suggests;
      since we've been doing fine without an MTA in the desktop for some
      time (and want to continue doing so), this fails the definition of
      Recommends.
  * Dropped changes no longer needed in Ubuntu:
    - change Default-Stop to "0" in debian/init.d
    - removal of Ubuntu-specific acpi-support integration in preinst

anacron: cron-like program that doesn't go by time

 Anacron (like `anac(h)ronistic') is a periodic command scheduler. It
 executes commands at intervals specified in days. Unlike cron, it
 does not assume that the system is running continuously. It can
 therefore be used to control the execution of daily, weekly and
 monthly jobs (or anything with a period of n days), on systems that
 don't run 24 hours a day. When installed and configured properly,
 Anacron will make sure that the commands are run at the specified
 intervals as closely as machine-uptime permits.
 .
 This package is pre-configured to execute the daily jobs of the Debian
 system. You should install this program if your system isn't powered on
 24 hours a day to make sure the maintenance jobs of other Debian packages
 are executed each day.
