There are other bugs open to care about the two "subelements" of this bug:
1. actually on a server time shouldn't step, so (by default) it shouldn't set
time via ntpdate anymore
2. even if so other than on boot it should drift instead of set time, like bug
75347 (yeah that old)
Cleaning up open bugs I'll be closing the bug as dup for the first to a
patch which will discuss if we want it default-disabled.

Title:
ntpdate call frequency
Status in ntp package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Currently ntpdate is started every time the network interface changes to up.
On systems that have a hardware clock this is not nessesary, causeing
unnessesary traffic and load on ntp servers.
If easily possible ntpdate shold rather be called daily or weekly via
cron, if there is a hardware clock present.
(affects all Ubuntu versions)
