[Martin-Éric Racine]

Package: systemd
Version: 247.9-2
Severity: important

Setting up systemd (247.9-2) ...
Removing obsolete conffile /etc/dhcp/dhclient-exit-hooks.d/timesyncd ...
Removing obsolete conffile /etc/systemd/timesyncd.conf ...
Setting up systemd-timesyncd (247.9-2) ...

Yet changelog mentions nothing about this.

Where has the [time] configuration gone to? What will restart NTP sync? Again, the changelog says nothing.

$ dpkg -L systemd-timesyncd
/.
/etc
/etc/dhcp
/etc/dhcp/dhclient-exit-hooks.d
/etc/dhcp/dhclient-exit-hooks.d/timesyncd
/etc/systemd
/etc/systemd/timesyncd.conf
[...]

So it seems to be misusage of maintainer scripts.
