[Koha] Koha zebra indexing stops every day morning.

[Radek Šiman]

Hi,

it's not about stopping anacron only, but about using simple cron deamon 
instead of it. I can confirm that one of libraries where I'm providing 
Koha services suffered from this bug. After we started not to use 
anacron, everything goes well although we had Koha down several times a 
week. Now it's running smoothly for 3 months.
