This seems to be somewhat related to https://bugs.launchpad.net/cpc- gce/+bug/1639089 (only affects Xenial).
In summary the "pool" entries in ntp.conf should be commented out by gce-cloud-config but when ntp.conf transitioned from using "server" to "pool" gce-cloud-config was not updated. I will be fixing lp:1639089 in the GCE Xenial image build process initially followed by a fix for gce-cloud-config. Note that gce-cloud-config is being deprecated in favour of gce-compute- image-packages which does not have this bug. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1652695 Title: GCE default NTP configuration uses both leap-smeared and true UTC sources To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/cloud-images/+bug/1652695/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
