Re: Bug#679882: Processed: Re: linux: leap second fixes missing in 3.2 and 2.6.32 longterm



Hi,

Is there any progress on this one? It appears that out there on the network there are quite a few stratum 1 NTP servers that didn't clear their leap second flag and one more was injected on quite a few machines end of July. I assume the same might happen end of August as well :) Would be great if havoc can be avoided by having an officially patched kernel.

Thanks a lot.

Vladimir
