Subject: `make dep' with clock skew detected loops forever
Date: Wed, 29 Feb 2012 11:01:38 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120229190138.GG5136@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)
Noticed something on a fresh FC16 based install on a test server in our
lab. Autotest by default runs `make dep` and it seems the clock is
pretty badly skewed on this server, resulting in an infinite loop of:

Anyone know why that happens? Obvious fixes are to either not run `make
dep` or to install an NTP client, and I can do that, but figured I'd
report the above.
Thanks,
Nish
