Fedora 34 replaced classic NTP with a more secure replacement: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/NtpReplacement Note that, if importing this package from Fedora, it will need quite a bit of work to adapt it to Mageia. Ideally it would be nice to allow people to get out of the business of editing the packaged ntp.conf, and support using /etc/ntp.d like upstream does. Our installer and drak tools would have to be adapted if we make this change.

Please see /etc/chrony/conf.d/README for more information. NTP sources can be specified in /etc/chrony/sources.d. Please see /etc/chrony/sources.d/README for more information." https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/hirsute-hippo-release-notes/19221
'ntp' has no fixed maintainer, and given the wider nature of this request, assigning this globally.

Indeed this was handled last August it looks like. Updated to 1.2.2 in January by me, and spec file fixes made by David Geiger in March. TODO: document in Mageia 9 release notes TODO: adapt Mageia installer to wrote to ntp.d and chrony/sources.d instead of ntp.conf or chrony.conf
Priority: Normal => release_blocker
