Remove hard dependency to ntp #44

Closed laeti-tia closed 6 years ago

laeti-tia commented 6 years ago

Our RPM bwctl package doesn't have a hard dependency on ntp, although it is highly recommended to have it running.

We should move the Debian ntp dependency to be just a Recommends: or have the Depends: be on ntp | time-daemon like we have for owamp-server.

The init script then needs to be corrected to remove the requirement to have ntp running before starting bwctld.

bwctl 1.6.6-2 will have a fix for that, see https://github.com/perfsonar/bwctl/commit/db78e184da25da59f83db1a94aaf9bbdb43b8d68
