Package: adjtimex
Version: 1.29-2.1
Severity: normal
the extended regular expression at line 93 of adjtimex.postinst,
'^([:space:]*(#.*)?|[:space:]*[a-zA-Z][a-zA-Z0-9]*[:space:]*=[:space:]*[0-9]+[:space:]*)$',
does not match negative values, therefore the script removes
/etc/default/adjtimex if FREQ is negative, which probably happens on
many systems.
please change the ere to
'^[:space:]*((#.*)?|[a-zA-Z][a-zA-Z0-9]*[:space:]*=[:space:]*-?[0-9]+[:space:]*)$'
regards
g.
