Package: ntp
Version: 1:4.2.8p12+dfsg-4
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
I have started to receive errors such as the following:
Jun 10 14:08:24 blackab3 ntpd[592]: leapsecond file
('/usr/share/zoneinfo/leap-seconds.list'): will expire in less than 18 days
I tried to run update-leap to update the file, but received the following error:
No leapfile directive in /etc/ntp.conf; leapfile location not known
Looking in ntp.conf, I see the following:
# Leap seconds definition provided by tzdata
leapfile /usr/share/zoneinfo/leap-seconds.list
I hand edited a test ntp.conf with just the setting (incase the file was
corrupt), but it gave the error.
Running the command with the direct option worked:
update-leap -L /usr/share/zoneinfo/leap-seconds.list
This is strange, the ntp.conf file appears correct - but it is not being read
by update-leap.
-Ken
