Package: systemd-timesyncd
Version: 247.3-6
Severity: important
Hi!
On upgrade from Buster to Bullseye I have seen my machines, without Internet
ntp access, loose their time sync because of the upgrade.
On the upgrade to the new packages, the old /etc/systemd/timesyncd.conf file
which specifies the right ntp servers to use, will get replaced with a default
one which will not work for a setup where Internet ntp access is not available.
Luckily the old file is left as /etc/systemd/timesyncd.conf.dpkg-bak, so a
mv /etc/systemd/timesyncd.conf.dpkg-bak /etc/systemd/timesyncd.conf
and proper reloading will get things back to normal.
I don't know why this file is being replaced, this happened on all the
machines that had a modified timesyncd.conf file and the system never asked
if I wanted to override the setup or leave the old one, no choice was given,
it was just replaced and that's it.
If you feel that this is the right behaviour, I believe that we should at
least add a note on the Release Notes or similar.
Regards.

Closes: 986651 993947
Changes:
systemd (247.9-2) unstable; urgency=medium
.
* Demote systemd-timesyncd from Depends to Recommends.
This avoids a dependency cycle between systemd and systemd-timesyncd and
thus makes dist upgrades more predictable and robust.
It also allows minimal, systemd based containers where no NTP client is
strictly necessary.
To ensure that systemd-timesyncd is installed in a default installation
created by d-i, bump its priority to standard. (Closes: #986651, #993947)
