Package: ntpsec-ntpdate
Version: 1.2.1+dfsg1-7+b1
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: none, Dima Kogan <dko...@debian.org>
Hi. I see this:
root@shorty:/home/dima# ntpdate-debian
sed: can't read /etc/ntpsec/ntp.conf: No such file or directory
ntpdig: no eligible servers
The missing file is in the "ntpsec" package, which is not in the
Depends, and maybe should be there. If I install this package I see
this:
root@shorty:/home/dima# ntpdate-debian
ntpdig: socket error on transmission: [Errno 99] Cannot assign requested
address

{"time":"2022-09-27T11:54:36.227571-0700","offset":-0.001772,"precision":0.073811,"host":"0.debian.pool.ntp.org","ip":"79.133.44.139","stratum":1,"leap":"no-leap","adjusted":false}
This is probably the ipv6 bug:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=971523
The console output doesn't tell me if the errors were fatal or not. Were
they actually warnings? It should tell me.
Also, the output is qualitatively different from what it used to be not
very long ago. It used to be human-readable text, which told you the
time offset, and told you that the clock has been adjusted. Now it's
JSON, and I guess the clock isn't adjusted? "ntpdate-debian --help"
doesn't tell me how to make it adjust the clock. Can we make the
ntpdate-debian tool do what it did before? This is a breaking change in
behavior.
Thanks.
