Package: adjtimex
Version: 1.29-10
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer, I just upgraded from Debian 9 to 10 and started to get this:
$ sudo adjtimex -h pool.ntp.org
host found : host55.rax.ru
cannot understand ntpdate output
The output from the new ntpdate is:
$ sudo ntpdate pool.ntp.org
16 Nov 19:06:33 ntpdate[30125]: step time server 89.175.20.7 offset
-32.476235 sec
The output from the old ntpdate (Debian 9) was:
$ sudo ntpdate pool.ntp.org
16 Nov 19:07:18 ntpdate[31131]: adjust time server 192.36.143.130 offset
0.031384 sec
The problem seems to be related to bug #438718:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=438718
The bug should be fixed long ago:
https://github.com/rogers0/adjtimex/commit/f28e0e1cbdc949689d14d9e067e931abbc366913
in version 1.22.
