ntp 1:4.2.8p4+dfsg-3ubuntu1 source package in Ubuntu
Changelog
ntp (1:4.2.8p4+dfsg-3ubuntu1) xenial; urgency=medium
* Merge from Debian testing. Remaining changes:
+ debian/rules: enable debugging. Ask debian to add this.
+ debian/rules, debian/ntp.dirs, debian/source_ntp.py: Add apport hook.
+ Add enforcing AppArmor profile:
- debian/control: Add Conflicts/Replaces on apparmor-profiles.
- debian/control: Add Suggests on apparmor.
- debian/control: Build-Depends on dh-apparmor.
- add debian/apparmor-profile*.
- debian/ntp.dirs: Add apparmor directories.
- debian/rules: Install apparmor-profile and apparmor-profile.tunable.
- debian/source_ntp.py: Add filter on AppArmor profile names to prevent
false positives from denials originating in other packages.
- debian/README.Debian: Add note on AppArmor.
+ debian/ntpdate.if-up: Fix interaction with openntpd. Stop ntp before
running ntpdate when an interface comes up, then start again afterwards.
+ debian/ntp.init, debian/rules: Only stop when entering single user mode,
don't use /var/lib/ntp/ntp.conf.dhcp if /etc/ntp.conf is newer - it can
get stale. Patch by Simon Déziel.
+ debian/ntp.conf, debian/ntpdate.default: Change default server to
ntp.ubuntu.com.
+ debian/control: Add bison to Build-Depends (for ntpd/ntp_parser.y).
* Includes fix for requests with source ports < 123, fixed upstream in
4.2.8p1 (LP: #1479652).
* Add PPS support (LP: #1512980):
+ debian/README.Debian: Add a PPS section to the README.Debian,
removed all PPSkit one.
+ debian/ntp.conf: Add some configuration examples from the offical
documentation.
+ debian/control: Add Build-Depends on pps-tools
* Drop Changes:
+ debian/rules: Update config.{guess,sub} for AArch64, because upstream use
dh_autoreconf now.
+ debian/{control,rules}: Add and enable hardened build for PIE.
Upstream use fPIC. Options -fPIC and -fPIE are uncompatible, thus this is
never applied, (cf. dpkg-buildflags manual), checked with Marc
Deslauriers on freenode #ubuntu-hardened, 2016-01-20~13:11 UTC.
+ debian/rules: Remove update-rcd-params in dh_installinit command. When
setting up ntp package, the following message is presented to the user
due to deprecated use:
"update-rc.d: warning: start and stop actions are no longer
supported; falling back to defaults". The defaults are taken from the
init.d script LSB comment header, which contain what we need anyway.
+ debian/rules: Remove ntp/ntp_parser.{c,h} or they don't get properly
regenerated for some reason. Seems to have been due to ntpd/ntp_parser.y
patches from CVE-2015-5194 and CVE-2015-5196, already upstreamed.
+ debian/ntpdate.if-up: Drop lockfile mechanism as upstream is using flock
now.
+ Remove natty timeframe old deltas (transitional code not needed since
Trusty): Those patches were for an incorrect behaviour of
system-tools-backend, around natty time
(https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ntp/+bug/83604/comments/23)
- debian/ntpdate-debian: Disregard empty ntp.conf files.
- debian/ntp.preinst: Remove empty /etc/ntp.conf on fresh intallation.
+ debian/ntp.dhcp: Rewrite sed rules. This was done incorrectly as pointed
out in LP 575458. This decision is explained in detail there.
* All previous ubuntu security patches/fixes have been upstreamed:
+ CVE-2015-5146, CVE-2015-5194, CVE-2015-5195, CVE-2015-5196,

+ Fix to ignore ENOBUFS on routing netlink socket
+ Fix use-after-free in routing socket code
+ ntp-keygen infinite loop or lack of randonmess on big endian platforms

- ntp: Network Time Protocol daemon and utility programs
NTP, the Network Time Protocol, is used to keep computer clocks
accurate by synchronizing them over the Internet or a local network,
or by following an accurate hardware receiver that interprets GPS,
DCF-77, NIST or similar time signals.
.
This package contains the NTP daemon and utility programs. An NTP
daemon needs to be running on each host that is to have its clock
accuracy controlled by NTP. The same NTP daemon is also used to
provide NTP service to other hosts.
.
For more information about the NTP protocol and NTP server
configuration and operation, install the package "ntp-doc".
- ntp-dbgsym: debug symbols for package ntp
NTP, the Network Time Protocol, is used to keep computer clocks
accurate by synchronizing them over the Internet or a local network,
or by following an accurate hardware receiver that interprets GPS,
DCF-77, NIST or similar time signals.

- ntp-doc: Network Time Protocol documentation
NTP, the Network Time Protocol, is used to keep computer clocks
accurate by synchronizing them over the Internet or a local network,
or by following an accurate hardware receiver that interprets GPS,
DCF-77, NIST or similar time signals.
.
This package contains HTML documentation for the ntp packages (ntp,
ntpdate). Since there are no substantive man pages for ntp's
programs and configuration files, this package is desirable for any
setup beyond the simple default configuration.
- ntpdate: client for setting system time from NTP servers
NTP, the Network Time Protocol, is used to keep computer clocks
accurate by synchronizing them over the Internet or a local network,
or by following an accurate hardware receiver that interprets GPS,
DCF-77, NIST or similar time signals.
.
ntpdate is a simple NTP client that sets a system's clock to match
the time obtained by communicating with one or more NTP servers. It
is not sufficient, however, for maintaining an accurate clock in the
long run. ntpdate by itself is useful for occasionally setting the
time on machines that do not have full-time network access, such as
laptops.
.
If the full NTP daemon from the package "ntp" is installed, then
ntpdate is not necessary.
