Package: dhcpcd5
Version: 6.10.1-1
Severity: normal
File: /sbin/dhcpcd5
Dear Maintainer,
I was working on setting up ntp in my home network, when noticed that
the ntp server was not restarted after dhcpcd created a new ntp
configuration.
Ater some debugging i found this part in
/lib/dhcpcd/dhcpcd-hooks/50-ntp.conf:
46 if [ "$ntp_service" = ntpd ] && type invoke-rc.d >/dev/null 2>&1; then
47 [ -e /var/lib/ntp ] || mkdir /var/lib/ntp
48 : ${ntp_service:=ntp}
This will not change $ntp_service to "ntp", so the ntpd daemon will not
read its config again.
Changing this to:
48 ntp_service=ntp
made things work.
A note, debian lately expect the generated configuration to exists in
/run/, not in /var/lib/ntp, but that can be changed in /etc/default/ntp.
Regards,
Gergely Tomka
