Bug Description

When upgrading a machine that has landscape installed from hardy to intrepid, the end result is two cron jobs installed in /etc/cron.hourly that do the same thing:

root@hardy-vm1:~# ls -la /etc/cron.hourly/
total 20
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 2008-10-23 11:29 .
drwxr-xr-x 77 root root 4096 2008-10-23 13:18 ..
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 214 2008-10-20 14:55 landscape-client
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 102 2008-04-08 15:02 .placeholder
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 48 2008-10-10 15:24 smartpm-core

Both jobs basically run "smart update".

hardy and intrepid are end of life. Have you had this problem with a currently supported release?
