Package: ntpdate
Version: 4.2.2+dfsg.2-2
Severity: Minor

Getting the ntp servers from /etc/ntp.conf is a great idea, and does
save putting them in t2o places.  However, it is possible that ntpd is
NOT installed, and therefore there is no /etc/ntp.conf.  To avoid
generating file not found errors in this case, I suggest a check for
the existence of the file, as so:

if [ -e /etc/ntp.conf ] 
then
    NTPSERVERS=$(sed -rne 's/^(server|peer) ([-_.[:alnum:]]+).*$/\2/p' /etc/ntp.
conf | grep -v '^127\.127\.' 2>/dev/null)
fi
