Bug#1018843: systemd-cron: timed job fails

[Tim McConnell]

Package: systemd-cron
Version: 1.15.19-1
Severity: normal


Hi Maintainer,
I'm unsure of why this started, or how. I'm getting these messages in my daily
log reports:

So I'm unsure if it failed and retried and succeeded or what. I tried looking
in the man page to see if I could find where or how to go to fix this but it's
not clear where the timed services are/ how they get configured.
So how do I shut this up??
