Hi,
I’m looking at providing a service definition in GNU Guix for mcron.
The problem is that mcron seems to assume a single user. I’ve used it
that way, running it with my user account privileges, and this is fine.
However, it would be convenient if we were able to run a single mcron
process, presumably as root, and a command akin to ‘crontab’ to force
mcron to reload user files. WDYT?
Also, the ‘crontab’ command currently fails with:
ERROR: Unbound variable: crontab-user
Lastly, the manual mentions ‘at’ commands. It would be perfect if these
were actually provided. :-)
Thanks,
Ludo’.
