Huh? The only change was that I tried to raise it from the dead, and it
got smacked right back down into the wishlist bin :(

triaged:wishlist state, and this is one of them.

Adding ubuntu-meta because ntpdate lists it as a dependency, when ntpd
should be allowed as an alternative.

Oops, I meant it the other way around: ubuntu-minimal lists ntpdate as a
dependency, such that ubuntu-minimal is uninstalled if you try to
replace ntpdate with ntpd.

@aquina:
ntpd doesn't have to be shipped with a configuration that will launch it
as a daemon. It can easily be used to do ntpdate's job without
daemonizing.
Also, the ntpd binary is actually only around 2/3 the size of the
ntpdate binary, so I think you may be backwards on which one is bloated.
