Package: ntpsec-ntpdate
Version: 1.2.2+dfsg1-1+deb12u1
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
It looks like bug #931414 was never fully resolved. The initial
suggestion of adding an 'export service' statement was not actioned
through, or has later been reverted, so this variable still isn't
making it through to ntpdate-debian.
* What led up to the situation?
/etc/network/if-up.d/ntpsec-ntpdate doesn't trigger ntpdate after
network interface comes up
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
Some testing editing ntpdate-debian showed that this was because
the $METHOD environment variable was set, but not $service
Modifying /etc/network/if-up.d/ntpsec-ntpdate, adding the 'export service'
line as suggested in
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=931414
fixes the issue.
