It's probably not as straightforward, hence my post.

It's not in any package in factory:

# zypper in logger
Loading repository data...
Reading installed packages...
'logger' not found in package names. Trying capabilities.
No provider of 'logger' found.
Resolving package dependencies...
Nothing to do.

On oS 12.3:
  > rpm -qf /usr/bin/logger
  util-linux-2.21.2-10.2.1.x86_64

# rpm -q util-linux
util-linux-2.26-1.1.armv7hl

On oS 13.2:
  > rpm -qf /usr/bin/logger
  util-linux-systemd-2.25.1-2.4.x86_64

# zypper in util-linux-systemd
(1/1) Installing: util-linux-systemd-2.26-1.1 .........[done]

# systemctl restart ntpd

Works.

So, zyppers' trying of capabilities sucks ;-)

Package ntp is missing a dependency on util-linux-systemd (or logger).
While logger was in util-linux it was obviously never noticed.

Both the above are probably not ARM specific.

Thanks for the pointer. General problem: How do I find out which package
provides XX if zypper (and yast??) can't find it?

Thanks,

Volker
