Speaking of ntpdate:
Last I checked the ntp, ntpdate, ntp-simple, and ntp-server
packages seemed to
be missing from the amd64 mirrors that I have been using
(debian.csail.mit.edu and mirror.espri.arizona.edu). This has been
the case
for at least a week or two now. I just pulled the .deb files I had
from the
apt cache on another local machine and moved on, but does anyone
know what is
the story with the missing packages?
