Package: openntpd
Version: 3.9p1-3
Severity: minor

On laptops and platforms that regularly change IP addresses or ifup/down
interfaces, ntpd can stop functionning properly quite quickly. You'd
get this message in your daemon.log:

Dec 22 22:31:53 mumia ntpd[3758]: sendto: Invalid argument

To resolve this, I added the following, trivial, script to
/etc/network/if-up.d/openntpd:

#!/bin/sh

if [ "$METHOD" = loopback ]; then
        exit 0
fi

invoke-rc.d openntpd force-reload
