Description w unruh 2017-06-21 15:26:32 CEST 
Description of problem: chrony requires timepps.h to compile itself with the pps api. I had requested this a few years ago but nothing has happened, and am now reminding Mageia of the desirability of including this. https://www.rpmfind.net/linux/RPM/fedora/devel/rawhide/i386/p/pps-tools-0-0.13.20120407git0deb9c.fc26.i686.html

The inclusion of this package allows chrony to use PPS which gives clock accuracy of 10s of nanoseconds rather than 10s of milliseconds. 


(My previous request for this has fallen off the bugs tree.)
