[Bug 1656801] Re: ntp: changing the default config from server to pool broke the dhcp hook

[Paul Gear]

Given that Debian has already applied the patch which eliminates the
distinction between tabs & spaces, there doesn't seem a lot of point in
keeping a different patch in place.  Best to apply the patch as is, and
deal with the issue of augmenting the list separately, if necessary.

Title:
  ntp: changing the default config from server to pool broke the dhcp
  hook

Status in ntp package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in ntp source package in Xenial:
  Triaged
Status in ntp package in Debian:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  In 1:4.2.8p3+dfsg-1, the default config was changed to
  "Use pool instead of server".  This needs a corresponding
  update to /etc/dhcp/dhclient-exit-hooks.d/ntp, since the
  DHCP specified servers now get added to the default pool
  config instead of replacing them.

  This affects Xenial only as the Yakkety build includes the upstream
  fix (1:4.2.8p7+dfsg-1).
