This release also contained improved patches for CVE-2015-7704, CVE-2015-7705, CVE-2015-7974. These non-security issues were fixed: - bsc#979302: Change the process name of the forking DNS worker process to avoid the impression that ntpd is started twice. - bsc#981422: Don't ignore SIGCHILD because it breaks wait(). - bsc#979981: ntp-wait does not accept fractional seconds, so use 1 instead of 0.2 in ntp-wait.service. - Separate the creation of ntp.keys and key #1 in it to avoid problems when upgrading installations that have the file, but no key #1, which is needed e.g. by "rcntp addserver". - bsc#957226: Restrict the parser in the startup script to the first occurrance of "keys" and "controlkey" in ntp.conf.
