Dear Maintainer,

/var/spool/cron/crontabs is already managed elsewhere,
in cron-daemon-common.tmpfiles; and cronie Depends
on cron-daemon-common so it should always be there.

By the way cronie claims ownership of /var/spool/cron/crontabs,
it will be removed by dpkg when switchin from cronie
to another cron, which might have undesired effects.

Hopefuly a reboot (which reruns tmpfiles) will fix it.

Greetins

Alexandre
