Description of problem: There is no network time daemon (ntpd or chronyd) installed by default when provisioning Fedora 18. We need one of these in order to set the system clock on ARM systems, as many do not have hardware real time clocks. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Fedora 18+ beaker-0.9.3 or greater How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Provision F18 on ARM hardware 2. check for ntpd or chrony 3. Actual results: No network time daemon is installed. Expected results: A network time daemon is installed. Additional info: I believe that ntpd is deprecated, so chrony is probably the better choice, but either is acceptable. We will need to ensure the configuration works from inside the intranet (firewall).
Beaker includes the ability to specify kickstart snippets on a per-OSMajor basis (http://beaker-project.org/docs/admin-guide/kickstarts.html#kickstart-snippets) Perhaps the right solution is to request installation of an appropriate snippet as /etc/beaker/snippets/per_osmajor/packages/Fedora18 with an appropriate arch check to limit the additional package to arm systems (http://beaker-project.org/docs/admin-guide/kickstarts.html#writing-kickstart-templates)
