Subject: [refpolicy] [PATCH 8/8] Allow cron to execute portage commands
Date: Sat, 3 Sep 2011 16:23:28 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20110903142328.GI25374@siphos.be> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20110903141833.GA25374@siphos.be>

Many users use portage from within cron (for instance to update the
portage tree or even automatically update their system). As such, we
allow to run portage from the (system) cronjob domains.
