Input crontab messed up by plesk update

viisauksena

New Pleskian
this happened now several times by doing plesk updates (and i stick around at least since version 10, lately this happened by upgrading to onyx)

symptom:
sofisticated and full crontab for root with many different jobs and many multiline comments, some empty lines.
after an update the ordering of comments and commands is totaly messed up, it seems that no command is missing, but some comments are.

while ripping comment and command this is more than annoying,
it also rips of every empty line

the latest update also add

SHELL="/bin/bash"
PATH="/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin"
and several empty MAILTO=""

in front of every command, which should be sufficient in the first lines
