Package: ntp Version: 1:4.2.6+dfsg-1 Severity: important Tags: patch Although gpsd should be able to work around being started after ntp these days, the preferred way is to start gpsd before ntp. Since insserv reorganizes the start order, gpsd needs to be mentioned as 'Should-Start' in the init script. Patch is attached, pelase apply and upload a fix before squeeze as it might break timeservers using gpsd/ntpd.
