Dear Maintainer,

molly-guard fails to reboot or shutdown if I call these commands from a cron job.
For example, if I have

0 7 * * * /usr/sbin/reboot

in root's crontab, the reboot doesn't happen, and root gets this email:

Before upgrading to trixie, this worked and the reboot just happened silently.

Thanks for all you do!
