因此，我使用 Anacron 能够每天可靠地运行一些脚本。然而，当 Anacron 本身有一半时间没有在启动时启动时，这不起作用。我怎样才能让 Anacron 可靠地启动？

从系统日志中可以看出，尽管机器在 5 月 21 日、25 日和 6 月 1 日启动过，但 Anacron 仅在 5 月 20 日和 6 月 3 日启动。
另外，今天（6 月 3 日），我实际上在 12:11 启动了计算机，看到 Anacron 尚未启动并且我的任何作业都没有运行，我在 12:29 重新启动了计算机。您可以在第二次启动时看到，Anacron 决定启动。为什么很多时候它无法启动？
编辑：这似乎已在 Debian 10 和 Ubuntu 19.04 中得到修复。
因此，如果使用电池供电，Anacron 似乎不会在启动时运行，并且仅计划在上午 7:30 运行。我的解决方案是将 Anacron 配置为在插入电源时运行。
这可以通过添加如下脚本来完成：
#!/bin/sh
test -x /etc/init.d/anacron && /usr/sbin/invoke-rc.d anacron start >/dev/null
我将其保存到/etc/pm/power.d/10_anacron（确保它是可执行的）中，在较旧的系统上，该文件在插入时会自动运行。在当前版本的 Ubuntu 上，您需要添加 udev 规则来运行该脚本。只需保存：
SUBSYSTEM=="power_supply", ATTR{online}=="1", RUN+="/etc/pm/power.d/10_anacron"
到/etc/udev/rules.d/anacron.rules。
