[Bug 1773660] [NEW] Crontab fails with 'Permission denied'

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

It is the same tab that was running on 16.04. I have web searched the
issue, and reported to the Mate forum, without solution. I am not a
newbie, I know about permissions, and I have tried everything. My user
account is added to the crontab group. The file in
/var/spool/cron/crontabs/<user> has the correct permissions.
