It's really annoying to have to remember to restart manually ntpd after
each reboot. timesyncd is 5 seconds off for me, so ntpd is the only option.
Obviously half the time I forget to restart ntpd and things get out of sync
across my servers.
I obviously can reproduce this systematically on many servers.

This is how it looks after startup :
$ systemctl status ntp.service systemd-timesyncd.service
● ntp.service - Network Time Service
   Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/ntp.service; enabled; vendor preset:
enab
   Active: inactive (dead)
     Docs: man:ntpd(8)

● systemd-timesyncd.service - Network Time Synchronization
   Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/systemd-timesyncd.service; enabled;
vendo
  Drop-In: /lib/systemd/system/systemd-timesyncd.service.d
           └─disable-with-time-daemon.conf
   Active: inactive (dead)
Condition: start condition failed at Fri 2020-04-24 10:57:43 PDT; 2min 19s
ago
           └─ ConditionFileIsExecutable=!/usr/sbin/ntpd was not met
     Docs: man:systemd-timesyncd.service(8)

What extra info is needed for this bug ?
