Package: chrony Version: 1.30-1+b1 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
with chrony 1.30-1 I could use the 'user' option in /etc/chrony/chrony.conf to make chrony run as regular user. Since 1.30-1+b1 this is not possible anymore. chrony fails to start with the following messages: # chronyd -d 2014-11-09T12:00:28Z chronyd version 1.30 starting 2014-11-09T12:00:28Z Fatal error : dropping root privileges not supported Downgrading to 1.30-1, I could run chrony as regular user again. It surprises me a bit than this regression was introduced by a rebuild with no source changes.
