 trying to overwrite '/etc/cron.yearly/.placeholder', which is also in package systemd-cron 1.15.19-4
Errors were encountered while processing:
 /var/cache/apt/archives/cron-daemon-common_3.0pl1-160_all.deb

It appears that cron-daemon-common has gotten around shipping /etc/cron.yearly/.placeholder, so systemd-cron can probably stop shipping it.
