Description poisson.rene 2014-07-03 17:01:28 UTC

It is not possible to configure automatic date and time setup using Date & Time systemsettings component (kcm_clock).
On Mageia4 and 5-alpha1 distro, chronyd is installed but "automatically set time" is grayed out displaying a tip "No NTP utility has been found ..."

It is possible to configure chronyd using the Mageia taskbar.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Be sure chronyd is running systemctl is-active chronyd;service
2. Click on System Settings start menu
2. Select Date & Time icon
3. Try to select "Set date and Time automatically"
Actual Results:  
Impossible to select

Expected Results:  
List of NTP servers shall appear after selection

Add systemd support into the clock KCM as an optional dependency

The current time setting helper is incredibly broken.

It manually tries to run a range of NTP utilities, all of which are
deprecated.

We can just call timedated directly and cut out the middleman as it has
uses polkit anyway.

This is currently an optional dependency, and the original helper still
exists. It makes the code messy, but we have users to support for now.

Detection is done at runtime
