Description Arthur Pemberton 2007-04-25 03:54:42 UTC 
Description of problem:
system-config-date crashes when there is not ntp server list

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
system-config-date-1.8.8-1.fc6

How reproducible: I have only been able to try this on one machine so far


Steps to Reproduce:
1. install Fedora 6
2. do not setup ntp servers
3. run system-config-date (from a console)
  
Actual results:
program crashes due to programming error

Expected results:
program starts up and allows me to configure ntp

Additional info:

* problem stems from getNtpServers() in dateBackend.py, it fails to return a
tuple if self.ntpFile evaluates to False
Comment 1 Nils Philippsen 2007-04-25 12:45:24 UTC 
This issue should be fixed in 1.8.12-2.fc6 which should hit mirrors soon.
Comment 2 Fedora Update System 2007-04-27 05:51:57 UTC 
system-config-date-1.8.12-2.fc6 has been pushed for fc6, which should resolve this issue.  If these problems are still present in this version, then please make note of it in this bug report.
