Description Eric Renfro 2013-07-09 23:10:16 UTC
Description of problem:
Chrony 1.25 in EPEL has a bug that when it detects kernels >= 3.0.0, it will stop and refuse to work. Chrony 1.26 fixed this issue.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
chrony-1.25-2.el6.x86_64

How reproducible:
Install chrony 1.25 and kernel-lt or kernel-ml from elrepo kernel and bug will show itself, chrony will refuse to start.

chrony 1.27-1 spec

Contains a functioning spec for the chrony 1.27, current latest stable from chrony's website. No changes were needed for the build process, and execution seems to be perfectly functional on stock kernel, kernel-lt and kernel-ml from elrepo.
