From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 Galeon/1.2.0 (X11; Linux i686; U;) Gecko/20020326 Description of problem: When a laptop with apmd is booted, anacron is not run. However, is suspended and resumed it is. This has the inconvenient that if the laptop is not suspended/resumed very often the anacron jobs will not run very often. The start event of apmd should start anacron, in the same way as the resume event does. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): apmd-3.0final-34 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. boot laptop with apmd configured 2. 3. Actual Results: anacron is never run if the laptop does not go through a suspend/resume cycle. Note that adding anacron as a service to start on boot is not an option, since that would not prevent running anacron if the laptop is on batteries. Expected Results: Run anacron on the apmd start event. Maybe it would be of interest to run it also when the power changes from battery to on-line (if anacron is configured not to run on batteries). Additional info:
I have a problem with anacron that is pertinent to this bug report. I have all cron-related services turned off, including anacron. When I suspend my laptop, then resume, I don't want anacron to run. Why should it, since it is not an enabled service.
