Just dropping the --with-sntp=no would have been too easy (thanks Murphy). It runs into build issues.
I was able to track those down to one of the build deps in combination with no more disabling sntp causing this => autogen. But then removing autogen build dep is not a "solution" - especially not one thinking of an SRU later. As it might cause all kind of changed behavior. The other way is to remove --disable-local-libopts as well, but that change as well could cause anything without knowing the code. I'll open an upstream bug to discuss and let the Debian bug know as well. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to ntp in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1604010 Title: sntp missing Status in NTP: New Status in ntp package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: In Ubuntu 16.04, the binary file /usr/bin/sntp is missing from the package ntp. The associated man page /usr/share/man/man1/sntp.1.gz is still included. How to reproduce: $ sudo apt-get install ntp $ dpkg-query -L ntp | grep sntp /usr/share/man/man1/sntp.1.gz Expected result: /usr/bin/sntp was included in Ubuntu 14.04: $ dpkg-query -L ntp | grep sntp /usr/bin/sntp /usr/share/man/man1/sntp.1.gz The sntp program remains a very useful tool for interactively testing on the command line the offset of the local clock to a remote NTP server (like "ntpdate -qu [ntp-server]" previously). It should be included in the same package as its man page.
