Pull request overview

Updates aker.service to wait for NTP time synchronization using the sysevent ntp_time_sync flag (instead of ntpd-status), enabling the service to start promptly after sync regardless of the underlying NTP client (e.g., chronyd).

Changes:

  • Switch pre-start wait condition from sysevent get ntpd-status == started to sysevent get ntp_time_sync == 1.

💡 Add a code-review agent skill or configure MCP servers for context-aware, tailored reviews. Learn more in the docs.
