I would like to make sure that the time is correct (ntp service running and the time is right;)) and then it's executed. Is the mechanism explained somewhere? The only thing I find is this: cat /var/log/postinstall.log Created gpg homedir Importing keys from 'ipkkeypub.gpg'... Importing keys from 'key-ipkkey.gpg'...

Patches welcome. 90890 3 randy.macleod 2021-07-08 15:15:31 +0000 Robert, I assume that you won't have time to work on this so I've moved it to unassigned. 92383 4 alex.kanavin 2022-01-21 22:16:59 +0000 Closing as this is not a bug; if documentation needs adjustment, please submit the needed patches directly.
