[pkg-ntp-maintainers] Bug#778564: Should be possible to preseed ntp server

Package: ntp
Version: 1:4.2.6.p5+dfsg-2+deb7u1

I did a preseeded installation of wheezy with
   d-i clock-setup/ntp-server string ntp.uk.xensource.com

This was honoured during installation, but after installation the real
system has *.debian.pool.ntp.org in its ntp.conf.  This is obviously
not desirable.

This bug against clock-setup in Ubuntu seems to be the same complaint:
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/clock-setup/+bug/388343

I'm not sure where exactly this should be fixed.  ntp.conf is a
dpkg-handled conffile in ntp in wheezy so I think at the very least
ntp needs to change.

Thanks,
Ian.
