Package: adjtimex
Version: 1.21.1-3
Severity: important
Tags: patch
adjtimex has a bug in evaluating the output of ntpdate, because
1. it assumes ntpdate outputs "adjust time server", but ntpdate may output
"step time server" also
2. it doesnt stop at last line but as soon as it has found "filter offset:"
lines,
and because of this it will not find the "offset ..." information in the last
line.
Patch to fix this behaviour:
