Even in the generic case it doesn't matter what daemon actually runs /etc/cron.{hourly,daily,weekly,monthly}. As long as the scripts are run as expected nobody should care whether it's cron or systemd. So we could easily get rid of cron in a minimal install at least. The shell script that wakes up every 15 minutes just to find out that there's nothing to do deserves to be reworked after 19 years of service :-)
Maybe it was already mentioned (sorry I haven't read the whole thread, pretty much the contrary actually), but there's also systemd-cron:

This is system generator, while the primary discussion revolved around user cron. Nobody argues that translating crontab into systemd timer unit is straightforward - but replacing single cron process with large number of per-user systemd instances does not look appealing to many. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
