[1.6.4] Use systemd-timer by default #3218

Open LaurenceJJones opened 2 months ago

LaurenceJJones commented 2 months ago

What would you like to be added?

Current we use crontabs for the CrowdSec daily update on hub packages, however, some linux distros are moving away from crontabs by default. Since our first party support systems are systemd based we should not package a cron and drop the dependancy for crontabs.

However, we should not delete the crontab script from our repository as other third party packaging may now depend on this and they can either migrate or simply stay on the crontabs.

/kind feature

Why is this needed?

Reduces a dependancy and uses a native systemd feature.
