I don't think this is really the same problem. The init script for NTP is designed to honour the settings provided by the DHCP client. In most cases, this is expected, but when the charm is configured, users expect the charm to manage the local settings for them without needing to override the

On which version of Ubuntu did you experience this? Whilst the latest LTS (18.04) and non-LTS (19.04) versions have moved the ntp package to universe, they still ship with a fully working configuration. Here's an example from a stock install on an AWS EC2 instance running disco (19.04):

@Robie The ntpdate command has a test mode that does not attempt to set the clock, which the sntp command lacks. I've confirmed on multiple systems that the installation of ntpdate prevents ntp from starting on boot, which IMO is worthy of fixing. ** Changed in: ntp (Ubuntu Xenial)
