Package: ntp
Version: 1:4.2.6.p2+dfsg-1+b2
Severity: important
Tags: sid
If the user "ntp" already exists, the group "ntp" might not get created
by the postinst script, but the very next line tries to reference it:
if [ "$1" = "configure" ]; then
adduser --system --quiet --group --no-create-home ntp || :
chown -R ntp:ntp /var/lib/ntp /var/log/ntpstats
fi
Fix suggestion:
if [ "$1" = "configure" ]; then
addgroup --system --quiet ntp || :
adduser --system --quiet --ingroup ntp --no-create-home ntp || :
chown -R ntp:ntp /var/lib/ntp /var/log/ntpstats
fi

Description:
ntp - Network Time Protocol daemon and utility programs
ntp-doc - Network Time Protocol documentation
ntpdate - client for setting system time from NTP servers
Closes: 528440 542721 587871 593417 606349 608542 613349 624275 627403 644120
Changes:
ntp (1:4.2.6.p3+dfsg-2) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Use architecture wildcard for libcap2-dev build dependency, removing
type-handing dependency (closes: #528440, #587871)
* Updated standards version
* Get build flags from dpkg-buildflags, and fix the resulting
-Wformat-security errors using patch from Colin Watson (closes:
#542721, #627403)
* Add -Wl,--as-needed to LDFLAGS, which drops the dependency of ntpdate
on libcap2
* Add sntp-manpage.patch to fix some errors in sntp man page pointed out
by lintian
* Re-remove tickadj. The previous method of achieving this by tweaking
configure cache variables apparently broke at some point, so this time
do it more directly.
* Explicitly disable building ntpsnmpd and remove man page (closes:
#608542; see also #622819)
* ntpdate-debian: Improve parsing of ntp.conf (closes: #606349)
* Add descriptions of -4/-6 options to ntpd man page (closes: #613349)
* Update options list on ntptrace man page to match reality (closes:
#593417)
* Add build-arch and build-indep debian/rules targets, per lintian
* Create ntp user and group separately, to handle the case where the
user already exists but not the group (closes: #624275)
* Don't ignore errors from adduser. If the system user or group already
exist, this is ignored anyway. Anything else we want to know about.
* Generalize ntp.cron.daily to cover all possible filegen stats files
(closes: #644120)
