Package: systemd
Version: 232-22
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainers,
When NetworkManager is running /etc/dhcp/dhclient-exit-hooks.d/timesyncd and
other hooks in the directory are not triggered. See #537358 for a very
old report
involving other packages with DHCP hooks.
The widely adopted solution seems to be adding per-package scripts to
/etc/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d and the attached patch does that for systemd.
Cheers,
Balint

I think we should go this route and it's still early in the bullseye
release cycle. I think you should poke NM upstream about this.
Since I don't plan to add a temporary workaround to systemd, I'm closing
this bug report.
