Package: ntp
Version: 1:4.2.6.p2+dfsg-1+b1
Severity: minor
The synopsis of the ntpd(8) man page is:
SYNOPSIS
ntpd [ -46aAbgLmnNqx ] [ -c conffile ] [ -f driftfile ] [ -i jaildir ]
[ -k keyfile ] [ -l logfile ] [ -p pidfile ] [ -P priority ] [ -r
broadcastdelay ] [ -s statsdir ] [ -t key ] [ -u user[:group] ] [ -U
interface_update_interval ] [ -v variable ] [ -V variable ]
So, it includes the -4 and -6 options. But these options are not
mentioned in the OPTIONS section. They should be described there.
