edit crontab without saving, installs it anyway on NetBSD 6.0?



Hi,

Then I edit the crontab using crontab -e and just exit without saving (with 
:q!) on a older NetBSD system, it typically looks like this:

# crontab -e
crontab: no changes made to crontab

And the cron log says:
Nov  2 21:38:06 typhoon crontab[5456]: (root) BEGIN EDIT (root) 
Nov  2 21:38:09 typhoon crontab[5456]: (root) END EDIT (root) 

Then I do the same procedure on my NetBSD 6.0, it looks like this:
# crontab -e
crontab: no changes made to crontab

cron log says:
Nov  2 21:51:18 morran crontab[15278]: (root) BEGIN EDIT (root)
Nov  2 21:51:23 morran crontab[15278]: (root) REPLACE (root)
Nov  2 21:51:23 morran crontab[15278]: (root) END EDIT (root)

Bug or feature?

/P
