Public bug reported:
In Ubuntu 16.04, the binary file /usr/bin/sntp is missing from the
package ntp. The associated man page /usr/share/man/man1/sntp.1.gz is
still included.
How to reproduce:
$ sudo apt-get install ntp
$ dpkg-query -L ntp | grep sntp
/usr/share/man/man1/sntp.1.gz
Expected result:
/usr/bin/sntp was included in Ubuntu 14.04:
$ dpkg-query -L ntp | grep sntp
/usr/bin/sntp
/usr/share/man/man1/sntp.1.gz
The sntp program remains a very useful tool for interactively testing on
the command line the offset of the local clock to a remote NTP server
(like "ntpdate -qu [ntp-server]" previously). It should be included in
the same package as its man page.
** Affects: ntp (Ubuntu)
