related question -- how do i interpret the cronie "dailyjobs" dependency?

  sorry, i should have added this to the previous question -- when i
check the dependencies of the "cronie" package on fedora 20, i see:

# rpm -qR cronie
/bin/sh
/bin/sh
/bin/sh
/bin/sh
config(cronie) = 1.4.11-4.fc20
coreutils
dailyjobs
... snip ...

  first, if i want to see what that "config(cronie)" dependency
represents, my first guess is to just list the package's config files
with:

# rpm -qc cronie
/etc/cron.deny
/etc/pam.d/crond
/etc/sysconfig/crond
#

is that the proper way to list the files that corresponds to?

  also, what is that "dailyjobs" entry? there's no such package and if
i list verbosely, i get:

# rpm -qRv cronie
... snip ...
manual: dailyjobs
... snip ...
#

  so what does that entry represent and where is it defined? thanks.
