Hello Martin, or anyone else affected, Accepted systemd into xenial-proposed. The package will build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/systemd/229-4ubuntu6 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.
Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users. If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested, and change the tag from verification-needed to verification-done. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-failed. In either case, details of your testing will help us make a better decision. Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance! ** Changed in: systemd (Ubuntu Xenial) Status: In Progress => Fix Committed ** Tags added: verification-needed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to systemd in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1578663 Title: create DHCP exit hook for setting NTP servers through dhclient Status in systemd package in Ubuntu: Fix Committed Status in systemd source package in Xenial: Fix Committed Status in systemd source package in Yakkety: Fix Committed Bug description: Similar to /etc/dhcp/dhclient-exit-hooks.d/ntpdate, we should ship a DHCP exit hook for timesyncd to update the timesyncd configuration in /run/systemd/timesyncd.conf.d/01-dhclient.conf to set the picked up NTP servers, and restart timesyncd. SRU INFORMATION =============== Rationale: This is a regression compared to trusty where we used ntpdate; /etc/dhcp/dhclient-exit-hooks.d/ntpdate ran ntpdate on the new NTP servers. This causes timesyncd to always try and talk to the disto configured server (ntp.ubuntu.com) which might be disallowed by firewall rules or other networking policy. Thus machines in such an environment never get a correct time sync even when they get a local NTP server advertised over DHCP (unless they use systemd-networkd, which is not done by default in Xenial). Test case: - Set up a DHCP server that includes NTP information. For example, you can set LXC_DHCP_CONFILE=/etc/lxc/dnsmasq.conf in /etc/default/lxc-net, and create /etc/lxc/dnsmasq.conf with "dhcp-option=option:ntp-server,4.3.2.1", and then run QEMU on lxcbr0 instead of the builtin network. - In the client machine, disconnect and reconnect the network (e. g. "sudo ifdown ens3; sudo ifup ens3"). - Check in "systemctl status systemd-timesyncd" that timesyncd tries to sync with the given NTP server (for the bogus 4.3.2.1 it will fail, but the point is that it did try). Regression potential: A broken dhclient-exit-hooks.d has the potential to break subsequent hooks. dhclient-scripts runs the hooks without "set -e", but syntax errors can still cause damage. Thus it should be verified that later hooks (e. g. /etc/dhcp/dhclient-exit-hooks.d /zzz_avahi-autoipd) still run. Beyond that there is little potential for regression as To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/systemd/+bug/1578663/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
