[Bug 1414925] [NEW] ntpd seems to add offsets instead of subtracting them

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug by Robie Basak (racb):

ntpd seems to add offsets instead of subtracting them from the running
synchronized clock, leading to time running away fast in one direction
-- forward if the offset is positive, -- backward if the offset is
negative, until the offset reaches its maximum.
