Re: Can apt-get do an "apt-get update"? Broken installs

The problem is that there are actually devices that have *no* clock
(yes, gasp!).  Running ntpdate is a must for them and I hope to add
this as an option to clock setup as some point.  Adding an "apt-get
update" as a work-around would be nice though, especially since I
don't see how it could hurt.
