This bug was fixed in the package ntp - 1:4.2.8p9+dfsg-2ubuntu1
---------------
ntp (1:4.2.8p9+dfsg-2ubuntu1) zesty; urgency=medium
* Merge from Debian testing. Remaining changes (LP: #427775):
+ d/rules: enable debugging
+ d/rules, d/ntp.dirs, d/source_ntp.py: Add apport hook.
+ d/ntpdate.if-up: Fix interaction with openntpd. Stop ntp before
running ntpdate when an interface comes up, then start again afterwards.
+ d/ntp.init: Only stop when entering single user mode
+ d/ntp.init don't use /var/lib/ntp/ntp.conf.dhcp if /etc/ntp.conf is
newer, it can get stale. Patch by Simon Déziel. (refreshed to apply to
new path /run/ntp.conf.dhcp)
+ d/ntp.conf, d/ntpdate.default: Change default server to ntp.ubuntu.com.
+ d/control: Add bison to Build-Depends (for ntpd/ntp_parser.y).
+ Fix ntpdate-debian to be able to parse new config of ntp
+ Add PPS support:
- d/README.Debian: Add a PPS section to the README.Debian,
removed all PPSkit one.
- d/ntp.conf: Add some configuration examples from the offical
documentation.
+ Add Apparmor bits not yet accepted in Debian
- d/control: Add Suggests on apparmor.
- d/source_ntp.py: Add filter on AppArmor profile names to prevent
false positives from denials originating in other packages
- d/apparmor-profile add samba winbindd pipe
- Create etc/apparmor.d/{force-complain,tunables}/
* Drop Changes:
+ SECURITY UPDATE: NTP statsdir cleanup cronjob insecure
(was accepted in Debian).
+ d/control: different conflicts/replaces versions on apparmor (was a
dependency on a higher apparmor version, but today all releases are newer)

Bug description:
Ubuntu 9.04, affects the ntpdate binary package
Problem: Using dhcp a file ntpdate.dhcp is created but never used.
By default NTPDATE_USE_NTP_CONF in /etc/default/ntpdate is set to
"yes". This has the following consequences:
/usr/sbin/ntpdate-debian parses /etc/default/ntpdate and checks for
/etc/ntp.conf.dhcp /etc/ntp.conf /etc/openntpd/ntpd.conf if
NTPDATE_USE_NTP_CONF is set to yes. By default ntpd is not installed
therefore there is no /etc/ntp.conf.dhcp /etc/ntp.conf or
/etc/openntpd/ntpd.conf. ntpdate-debian then defaults to the
NTPSERVERS set in /etc/default/ntpdate, namely "ntp.ubuntu.com". Only
if NTPDATE_USE_NTP_CONF is set to "no" there will be a check for
/etc/default/ntpdate.dhcp and consequently the server supplied by dhcp
be used.
I propose to set NTPDATE_USE_NTP_CONF to "no" by default. If ntpd is
installed, this will override the use of ntpdate and
/etc/ntpd.conf.dhcp and /etc/default/ntpdate.dhcp will both be created
by DHCP anyway, therefore both packages will use the DHCP supplied
servers in any case.
