Hi Tony,
yeah this is so far only fixed in Bionic (18.04) onwards.
It it not really an issue other than a log message itself (it is not needed for
the opt parsing).
It occurs "only" on NTP start/restart (since it is arg parsing) so it is not
that frequent that it would fill up the log or similar secondary issues.
All that makes it a hard case for the SRU policy [1] to make this change in
releases.
Until then everybody who bothers about the log message can add:
/usr/local/{,s}bin/ r,
to
/etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.ntpd
I'm adding X/A bug tasks and set won't fix to mark that more explicitly.
I'm happy to discuss if one thinks this case would qualify fot the SRU
policy - the change itself is easy enough to be done.
