system-settings.sh ignores existence of ntpd package

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Log in to web interface
2. Go to the /cgi-bin/webif/system-settings.sh (System Settings) page
3. I get the following error message, "Warning: No NTP client is installed.
For correct time support you need to install one" even though ntpd is
already installed. 

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I do not expect to see an error message here since I do actually have an
NTP program installed. 

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
r4393, Linksys WRT54G

Please provide any additional info below.

The message does not say that the router has a wrong time and it is not using 
any
time sync method at all. The page was designed only for the ntpclient package.
Maybe the message could say cleanly that: "The ntpclient package is not 
installed".

If you already have ntpd installed not only is it not necessary to installed
ntpclient, it's probably not even a good idea. I still believe that if you have 
one
or the other installed there should be no error message. Thanks for taking a 
look at
this in any case.

I have the ntpclient package installed, and it's still prompting me to install 
an NTP
client. When I click the "Install NTP Client" button, it says "Installing 
NTPCLIENT
package ..." and then brings up the same prompt again.

I think it's a little more than just a simple failure to detect the ntpd 
package.
