[Touch-packages] [Bug 61619] Re: please replace dependency on ntpdate in ubuntu-minimal with ntp
*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 583994 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/583994 ntpdate has been deprecated upstream for a long time as previously pointed out several times. The NTP code has seen numerous security vulnerabilities and we have to assume that ntpdate is not receiving the same scrutiny anymore when compared to ntpd. This is no longer a wishlist change only. Ignoring the bitrot and neglect of this core package is getting more and more risky which really makes no sense when an alternative is readily available. Setting milestone for vivid, hoping that it is not too late, yet. ** Summary changed: - ntpdate in -minimal should have an alternative + please replace dependency on ntpdate in ubuntu-minimal with ntp ** Changed in: ubuntu-meta (Ubuntu) Importance: Wishlist = Medium ** Changed in: ubuntu-meta (Ubuntu) Milestone: None = ubuntu-15.02 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to ntp in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/61619 Title: please replace dependency on ntpdate in ubuntu-minimal with ntp Status in ntp package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in ubuntu-meta package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Hi!

*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 583994 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/583994 copying comment 0 from bug 583994 here for reference and completeness Given that 'ntpdate' is being obsoleted upstream [1], we should replace 'ntpdate' usage by: * ntpd -qg (if we really want to set the time and exit), or * ntpd-g (if we want to keep ntpd running) the '-q' option will set the clock once, and exit; the 'g' allows for large corrections to the clock, like what is done by 'ntpdate'.
