LMDE 4: time was drifting, so NTP is back

Post by UncleOp »

I did the upgrade from LMDE 3 to LMDE 4 this weekend. I just noticed my system clock had drifted by nearly 10 minutes. Looking around I determined that NTP was no longer installed; I missed that during the upgrade I guess. The systemd equivalent was not doing its job, so I reinstalled NTP. Within a few minutes my time was back in sync.

Don't wanna' start a(nother) systemd feud, but I would like to know where this change was mentioned. It wasn't something I expected.

Thanks!

I think you would need to pose that question to the devs via the github repository. The devs are probably the only ones that can answer that, but they rarely ever grace us, the unwashed masses, with their presence.
