Talking about debian, I would like to know is my bug report being
resolved in this release, I reported it for .26 but never got any reply.
I'm talking about debian's way in new releases of making the ntp service
name in init.d to have different names, like ntp-simple and ntpdate (to
be run when you boot only). Last time I tested gst it didn't recognize
ntp-simple as the ntp server script, the fix is trivia after anyway.

In addition, on debian the ntp servers are in file which I don't know if
gst handles correctly:
> cat /etc/default/ntp-servers
NTPSERVERS="ntp1.funet.fi ntp2.funet.fi"
