Package: systemd-cron
Version: 1.3.1+ds1-2
Severity: normal
If the crontab for your user doesn't exit and you run crontab -l, a Python
stacktrace is produced instead of a user-friendly error message.
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/crontab", line 94, in <module>
action(cron_file, args)
File "/usr/bin/crontab", line 55, in list
with open(cron_file, 'r') as f:
IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/var/spool/cron/crontabs/oxan'
