Description:
Upgrade of ntp package from 4.2.7.p441-1 to 4.2.7.p446-1 caused ntpd.service file to be overwritten, causing custom parameters to ntpd to be lost and re-enabling undesired IPv6 functionality. Additional info: * package version(s) 4.2.7.p446-1 * config and/or log files etc. I've customised /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/ntpd.service with the following: ExecStart=/usr/bin/ntpd -g -4 -u ntp:ntp -p /run/ntpd.pid This got overwritten when the package was upgraded. Steps to reproduce: Upgraded the package and ntpd.service was overwritten. No .pacnew file was generated. |
This task depends upon
The proper way is create /etc/systemd/system/ntpd.service and symlink that one.
I've even a custom service set up just as you describe. This bug can be closed.
