Description Thornton Prime 2000-12-31 00:01:59 UTC 
From the install.log file:

Installing sysstat.
var/tmp/rpm-tmp.75852: id: command not found
var/tmp/rpm-tmp.75852: [: too many arguments

It didn't create a cron entry for sysstat.

As opposed to editing crontab (as is done in 7.0), the simplest thing to do
would be to make an /etc/cron.d/sysstat part of the rpm.

Related to #20925 and other evilness.
