[Test Case] # e.g. spawn xenial container # Note: only occurs when ntp is installed as well $ apt-get install ntpdate ntp $ ntpdate-debian (Note for latter verification enable proposed in that container and re-update ntpdate) [Regression Potential] * There could exists a custom user conf that had a mixed server AND pool specified, that now will use the first of both types while instead formerly it would have used the first server entry. The chance for this is super-low IMHO, but this case exists. -------- in 16.04 I get this # ntpdate-debian 28 Apr 09:54:14 ntpdate[30747]: no servers can be used, exiting The problem is that ntpdate-debian parse /etc/ntp.conf, searchin for the word "server", but the format of the file as changed a bit < server 0.ubuntu.pool.ntp.org < server 1.ubuntu.pool.ntp.org < server 2.ubuntu.pool.ntp.org < server 3.ubuntu.pool.ntp.org --- > pool 0.ubuntu.pool.ntp.org iburst > pool 1.ubuntu.pool.ntp.org iburst > pool 2.ubuntu.pool.ntp.org iburst > pool 3.ubuntu.pool.ntp.org iburst 25c24 < server ntp.ubuntu.com --- > pool ntp.ubuntu.com the word server as been replaced by "pool" To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ntp/+bug/1576698/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: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
