Ah yes, I can confirm it. This is because of ntpdate-debug.patch, which was probably made in response to bug #253571, which requests the behavior opposite to what you want. I would personally like to remove this patch. It is not our job to determine what kind of debug mode is useful. If additional behavior is desired, we can consider it and forward the ideas upstream. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
