Hi,
The openntpd package conflicts with the ntp package, but should it also provide ntp? I ask this because I have an application that depends on ntp, but cannot be installed because it conflicts with openntpd. $ pacman -Si openntpd Repository : community Name : openntpd Version : 5.7p1-1 Description : Free, easy to use implementation of the Network Time Protocol. Architecture : x86_64 URL : http://www.openntpd.org/ Licenses : BSD Groups : None Provides : None Depends On : openssl Optional Deps : None Conflicts With : ntp Replaces : None Download Size : 49.62 KiB Installed Size : 187.00 KiB Packager : Jelle van der Waa <jelle@vdwaa.nl> Build Date : Fri Jan 9 13:21:08 2015 Validated By : MD5 Sum SHA256 Sum Signature |
This task depends upon

OpenNTPD doesn't really provide ntp - it provides a different command-line API, etc.
I thought both openntpd and ntp provided an implementation of the ntp protocol, like for example cronie provides cron [1].

I think this bug can be closed though, if its just my tiny package that needs it :)
