Where's ntp gone? [answered]
As permanently struggling to be the master of time in my computer-universe, months ago I installed ntp on my first Jolla. zypper se -s ntp
says up to today:
i | ntp | package | 4.2.4p8-1.4.2 | armv7hl | (System Packages)
i | ntpdate | package | 4.2.4p8-1.4.2 | armv7hl | (System Packages)
Now I tried to bring my Jolla #2 to the same level of usability, because #1 needs a repair, but I'm unable to find ntp anymore in the repositories. Yes, might be useless today - but I'm missing it. What can I do?

which is provided byconnman
, that's why ntp is no longer found in the usual repo.which is receiving the time from the mobile network provider, not via ntp servers.And the mobile network provider usually knows your timezone (which the ntp server doesn't), hence it is 'automatic' when roaming into another time zone.
