Bug Description
cron-apt is executed every day at 4 o'clock. It's configured to send an email if there are updates available. Although the exact configuragtion is working under Debian, it does not with Ubuntu.
The daily mail stops with the message:
E: Failed to write temporary StateFile /var/lib/
I've found a related bug for debian, which is already fixed: http://
The bug for debian should be fixed in aptitude 0.6.7-1
Regards,
Sven
