Package: adjtimex
Version: 1.28-1
Severity: grave
I have the same problem on Ubuntu 10.04 (lucid, still under testing).
This error makes this package unusable.
It looks like that Correctly apply +-500 ppm sanity check applied for version
1.28 is causing problems.
Also, bug #559882 ( http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=559882 )
seems to be a duplicate of this one.
I have the same problem:

I tried using --force-adjust in adjtimexconfig, but it did not help.
