Package: gnome-control-center Version: 1:3.30.3-2~deb10u1 Severity: important
Dear Maintainer, After upgrading from stretch to buster, I was checking out the new Gnome Settings. I noticed that the `gnome-control-center datetime` panel seemed to indicate that Automatic Date and Time was not on, when I knew that it was in my stretch installation. I opened a terminal and did a `systemctl status ntp.service` and saw that ntp was enabled and running. Curious, I clicked the off/on widget in the datetime control panel to see if it would sync with the system. It flipped to on briefly, then back to off. I then re-ran `systemctl status ntp.service` and found that the ntp service had been killed. To be clear, ntp.service remained enabled, but the process had exited. Subsequent attempts to enable ntp via the gnome control panel all met with the same result: the switch flips on and then back off, and ntp is not restarted. I had to manually run `sudo systemctl start ntp.service` to restart it. While I've now made a mental note to ignore this control panel switch, and I know enough about the system to know how to make it work from the command line, I'd be concerned that non-technical users don't, and might just end up wrecking their ntp service toggling this broken switch. I'd hope it can be fixed so that, if ntp.service is enabled and running, the switch shows in the on position, and if it's not enabled and running, the switch should set it so. -- System Information: Debian Release: 10.3 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.19.0-8-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_PROPRIETARY_MODULE, TAINT_OOT_MODULE, TAINT_UNSIGNED_MODULE Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages gnome-control-center depends on: ii accountsservice 0.6.45-2 ii apg 2.2.3.dfsg.1-5 ii colord 1.4.3-4 ii desktop-base 10.0.2 ii desktop-file-utils 0.23-4 ii gnome-control-center-data 1:3.30.3-2~deb10u1 ii gnome-desktop3-data 3.30.2.1-2 ii gnome-settings-daemon 3.30.2-3 ii gsettings-desktop-schemas 3.28.1-1 ii libaccountsservice0 0.6.45-2 ii libatk1.0-0 2.30.0-2 ii libc6 2.28-10 ii libcairo-gobject2 1.16.0-4 ii libcairo2 1.16.0-4 ii libcanberra-gtk3-0 0.30-7 ii libcanberra0 0.30-7 ii libcheese-gtk25 3.31.90-1 ii libcheese8 3.31.90-1 ii libclutter-1.0-0 1.26.2+dfsg-10 ii libclutter-gtk-1.0-0 1.8.4-4 ii libcolord-gtk1 0.1.26-2 ii libcolord2 1.4.3-4 ii libcups2 2.2.10-6+deb10u2 ii libfontconfig1 2.13.1-2 ii libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 2.38.1+dfsg-1 ii libglib2.0-0 2.58.3-2+deb10u2 ii libgnome-bluetooth13 3.28.2-4~deb10u1 ii libgnome-desktop-3-17 3.30.2.1-2 ii libgoa-1.0-0b 3.30.1-2 ii libgoa-backend-1.0-1 3.30.1-2 ii libgrilo-0.3-0 0.3.7-1 ii libgtk-3-0 3.24.5-1 ii libgtop-2.0-11 2.38.0-4 ii libgudev-1.0-0 232-2 ii libibus-1.0-5 1.5.19-4+deb10u1 ii libkrb5-3 1.17-3 ii libmm-glib0 1.10.0-1 ii libnm0 1.14.6-2+deb10u1 ii libnma0 1.8.20-1.1 ii libpango-1.0-0 1.42.4-7~deb10u1 ii libpangocairo-1.0-0 1.42.4-7~deb10u1 ii libpolkit-gobject-1-0 0.105-25 ii libpulse-mainloop-glib0 12.2-4+deb10u1 ii libpulse0 12.2-4+deb10u1 ii libpwquality1 1.4.0-3 ii libsecret-1-0 0.18.7-1 ii libsmbclient 2:4.9.5+dfsg-5+deb10u1 ii libsoup2.4-1 2.64.2-2 ii libupower-glib3 0.99.10-1 ii libwacom2 0.32-1 ii libwayland-server0 1.16.0-1 ii libx11-6 2:1.6.7-1 ii libxi6 2:1.7.9-1 ii libxml2 2.9.4+dfsg1-7+b3 Versions of packages gnome-control-center recommends: ii cracklib-runtime 2.9.6-2 ii cups-pk-helper 0.2.6-1+b1 ii gkbd-capplet 3.26.1-1 ii gnome-online-accounts 3.30.1-2 ii gnome-user-docs 3.30.2-1 ii gnome-user-share 3.28.0-2 ii iso-codes 4.2-1 ii libcanberra-pulse 0.30-7 ii libnss-myhostname 241-7~deb10u3 ii mousetweaks 3.12.0-5 ii network-manager-gnome 1.8.20-1.1 ii policykit-1 0.105-25 ii pulseaudio-module-bluetooth 12.2-4+deb10u1 ii realmd 0.16.3-2 ii rygel 0.36.2-4 ii rygel-tracker 0.36.2-4 ii system-config-printer-common 1.5.11-4 Versions of packages gnome-control-center suggests: ii gnome-packagekit 3.30.0-1 ii gnome-software 3.30.6-5 ii gstreamer1.0-pulseaudio 1.14.4-1 ii libcanberra-gtk-module 0.30-7 ii libcanberra-gtk3-module 0.30-7 ii x11-xserver-utils 7.7+8 -- no debconf information
