            Bug ID: 209577
           Summary: rc.d/ntpd relies on inconsistent file timestamps
           Product: Base System
           Version: 10.3-RELEASE
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Some People
          Priority: ---
         Component: misc
          Assignee: freebsd-bugs@FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: rwmaillists@googlemail.com

It seems that different leap-second file sources use different time-stamps.=
 The
IETF doesn't  change the time-stamp when the only the expiry changes, but t=
he
IERS does.=20

This wont affect the leap-seconds seen by ntpd, but it can prevent rc.d/ntpd
from replacing an expired /var/db/ntpd.leap-seconds.list file causing a war=
ning
and fetch(1) trying to mirror the file every day.
