# Unmaintained. Ancient. Carries a lot of patches, and has even more
# bugs reported. Last rites were cancelled due to Gentoo/FreeBSD 1 year
# ago but that project is dead nowadays. Many alternatives exist,
# sys-process/cronie is probably the closest one (it's a fork).
# Removal in 30 days. Bug #693946.
