We won't do that. Unlike Debian, we don't want to support several
implementations of init, cron, or other low-level system tools in
Ubuntu. Once systemd-cron is mature enough and we deem it appropriate,
we may just switch to it.

Title:
  OR dependency cron || systemd-cron

Status in ubuntu-meta package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  the package "ubuntu-standard" has a dependency to "cron" for 15.04,
  with systemd this should be changed to an 'or' dependency cron OR
  systemd-cron. because right now, when you wanna switch to systemd-
  cron:

  LANG=C sudo apt-get install systemd-cron                                                         :(

  The following extra packages will be installed:
    systemd-sysv
  The following packages will be REMOVED:
    anacron cron ubuntu-minimal ubuntu-standard upstart ureadahead
  The following NEW packages will be installed:
    systemd-cron systemd-sysv
  0 upgraded, 2 newly installed, 6 to remove and 0 not upgraded.

  it tries to remove the ubuntu basics wich can lead to a nonworking
  system after some upgrades later.

  Please change it this way

  (the system works with systemd-cron)
