lowercase cron output in releases 7.x/8.x/9.x/10.x/11.x uppercase cron output in releases 11.4,12.1
There's no way of really answering the question, but probabilistically speaking, the change to uppercase in 11.4 broke more scripts than a change back now will break. 12.1 and 12.2 have not yet been put into production in many places.
Well, the change to uppercase in 11.4 broke some scripts, but I believe most of them have been adjusted to work with uppercase and now they would be broken again.
Well, I _believe_ the exact opposite.
I think we should revert to lowercase, using the same argument that was applied whenever it was changed to lowercase.
And what argument was that?
See for instance http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=15258 That UNIX/Linux is case-sensitive and that logging /USR/BIN/CRON is simply wrong because there is no executable with that name. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
