This is a generator that dynamicaly translates /etc/crontab,
/etc/cron.{d|hourly|daily|weekly|monthly|yearly}/*
and user cronjobs into systemd .timer & .service units.
.
Output from the commands is usually mailed to the system administrator
(or to the user in question); you should probably install a mail system
as well so that you can receive these messages.
