Says it all really.

Does ntp really work? I suppose it need root privs to update the time?
Comment 2 Alan Hourihane 2009-01-15 15:18:56 UTC 
sure, it'd need root access. Is that a problem ?
Comment 3 Jeremy Olexa (darkside) (RETIRED) archtester gentoo-dev Security 2009-01-15 15:45:54 UTC 
Nope, we just will package.mask these packages because not all prefix users have root access. It is still important to us to include them in the prefix tree though, so thanks for testing. I'll get to them soon.
Comment 4 Fabian Groffen gentoo-dev 2009-01-18 12:45:11 UTC 
both added, ntp masked, thanks!
