Bug#766053: Cannot edit user crontabs

Package: systemd-cron
Version: 1.3.1+ds1-1
Severity: normal

I was just giving systemd-cron a try and it seems that there are issues when
using /usr/bin/crontab.

/var/spool/cron/crontabs is not created with the correct permissions (my guess
is that it should likely be chmod 1730, chown root:crontab).

The second issue is that crontab is not running as setgid, since it's a script.
