Default path to driftfile is "/etc/ntp.drift", that doesn't work since
ntp daemon is always started with "ntp" user. It should be created at
the home directory of "ntp" which is "/var/lib/ntp/".
Could you provide a bit more detail on why this "doesn't work"? Does it
violate the FHS, or complicate securing an image, or...?
I see that Debian apparently puts the file in /var/lib/ntp.
I certainly don't object to the change, but "doesn't work" suggests this
patch fixes a functional bug, not an inconsistency with policy. More
detail in the commit message will help us occasional contributors
understand how things are supposed to be done and why.
Thanks.
