Speaking of anacron, you may want to eradicate all the
anacron junk if you actually want jobs to run at the
times you specified rather than at random times
anacron picks to be as inconvenient as possible
*no* you can configure it to *not* use random times
and then you can be sure that the system is aware
that a job did run
the random-default is perfectly for most environments
especially if you are in the world of virtualization
