You're unhappy that I reported a bug? Sorry, but if you disagree about
the content or severity, you *are* free to discuss with me (or others),
and as maintainer, your decision is final as far as I'm concerned.
As far as the epoch goes, that was only one suggestion, and an ugly
one, as I noted. My first suggestion(which perhaps wasn't clear) was to
simply make the version number of the xntp3 transition package higher
than the last "real" xntp3 package. There's no requirement (that I'm
aware of, anyway) that the xntp3 package version number match the ntp
version number.
later,
