According to http://support.ntp.org/bin/view/Dev/DeprecatingNtpdate, it seems that they expect you to use the sntp client for that functionality. Is this sufficient?
But yes - given that ntpdate is deprecated upstream, in general it would make sense to communicate upstream for any lost use cases. In this case, perhaps they have already communicated the answer? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1577596 Title: ntpd not started when using ntpdate To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/init-system-helpers/+bug/1577596/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
