@C de-Avillez Are you sure ntpdate is in the package ntp? I don't see
it in [1], and it /is/ in the package ntpdate
However the point of this bug is that it is misleading to have a
selection Update [time] Automatically from Internet which does not, in
fact, update automatically.

I have not so far seen this on Saucy in a few weeks of use. I will add
a comment if I do see it on Saucy.

Title:
@Yolanda, could you explain the reason why this is an issue with ntp since ntp
is not installed, and also why it has been changed to Wishlist?
Many Thanks.

@Sebastien, two points:
Firstly ntp is not installed so I am not sure how it can be a bug in ntp
Secondly it does re-sync when I connect, but since the machine is on
continuously the time drifts out over a period of days.

This problem also makes it impossible to add a new user and then login as that
user. If the newuser is created in terminal then:
$ sudo adduser testing
[sudo] password for colinl:
Adding user `testing' ...
Adding new group `testing' (1005) ...
Adding new user `testing' (1005) with group
