Package: chrony Version: 1.23-7 Severity: normal Recently reinstalled squeeze with business card. Installed chrony after the usual install drill. The install script reported that the package failed to install, but I tried to set it up anyway because I really like chrony. It seems to work, but there are strange instabilities. I have attempted several reinstalls and reconfigures but nothing I have done makes it work like it used to. The aptitude output for the latest attempt is:
Errors were encountered while processing: chrony E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) A package failed to install. Trying to recover: Setting up chrony (1.23-7) ...

Errors were encountered while processing: chrony Press return to continue. I can repeat this with any minor modifications that you suggest if that will improve the quality of this report. Also, the /etc/init.d/chrony script gives: o...@big:~# vim /etc/chrony/chrony.conf r...@big:~# /etc/init.d/chrony stop Stopped /usr/sbin/chronyd (pid 15487). r...@big:~# /etc/init.d/chrony start Starting /usr/sbin/chronyd... /usr/sbin/chronyd failed to start. But the process did, in fact, start and is posting reports the the three log files. It is finding the NTP server of my ISP, etc. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages chrony depends on: ii libc6 2.11.1-3 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libreadline5 5.2-7 GNU readline and history libraries ii timelimit 1.5-1 Simple utility to limit a process' ii ucf 3.0025 Update Configuration File: preserv Versions of packages chrony recommends: ii udev 157-1 /dev/ and hotplug management daemo chrony suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
