[Bug 1569856] Re: wrong status of ntp service

[ChristianEhrhardt]

I have to beg your pardon that I (and it seems nobody else) found time for that. 
Thinking about it again I think this isn't a ntp issue anyway but a generic problem for status_of_proc of init-functions.

Marking that to affect lsb-base instead due to that, that even applies
to Xenial as far as I could see so I'm not yet clear if/which releases
to mark.


** Package changed: ntp (Ubuntu) => lsb (Ubuntu)

Title:
  wrong status of ntp service

Status in lsb package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I'am using lxd containers. In the containers installed ntp package.

  Ubuntu 14.04 has old init.d script to manage a service.

  This script using status_of_proc, function from /lib/lsb/init-
  functions which is disregards that system can have ntpd processes
  running in containers. And returns success status, when ntp service is
  not running on host system but it running in container.
