Hi,

I'm looking for an indication whether something like this would be acceptable
for a stable release. If it might be acceptable I would come back with a 
proper debdiff for approval. A fellow DD has recently asked on the pkg-ntp
mailinglist about this.

sntp is the proper NTP client tool bundled with ntp sources, replacing
ntpdate. It was accidentally included in jessie due to an upstream build-system
screwup, fixed shortly after, not reenabled in time for Stretch but now built
in Buster. This makes Stretch having a regression over Jessie by not shipping
sntp.

I have added it in a seperate binary package in Buster. I think this will not
be possible for Stretch, so I would like to add it to the ntp binary package as
it has been the case with Jessie. The proper breaks/replaces for going to
Buster should be already in place, but I'll test the upgrade paths before
submission.

The patch would look similar to
https://anonscm.debian.org/git/pkg-ntp/pkg-ntp.git/commit/?id=94f4338f6cc7922f7618144f382e005159e4e1fe,
but installing into /usr/bin (same as in Jessie and Stretch). It won't result
in aditional dependencies.

See https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=793837 for the whole
discussion.

Best Regards,
Bernhard
