[PLUG] cron.weekly read file errors

  Each Sunday, the cron daemon sends root a report with the results of
run-parts on cron.weekly. The only file in /etc/cron.weekly is
makewhatis.cron. There's nothing in that script that leads me to understand
the source of these error messages:

Read file error: ./cancel. No such file or directory
Read file error: ./slogin1.1 No such file or directory
Read file error: ./disable.8 No such file or directory
Read file error: ./reject.8 No such file or directory
Read file error: ./forms.5 No such file or directory

  Can someone please give me some insight into the source of these? Is
makewhatis trying to read non-existent files? These look almost like man
pages to me, but what's trying to read them?

  Time to tidy up all the little bugs that have hung around here far too
long.

Thanks,

Rich
