Title:
  [hardy] ubuntu-minimal depends on ntpdate

Status in ubuntu-meta package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Hello!

  I noticed that on Hardy the package ubuntu-minimal depends on ntpdate.

  First, this doesn't seem necessary according to the description of
  ubuntu-minimal: network time synchronization is a nice feature, but
  not really needed.

  Package ntpdate claims (in its description) that "If the full NTP
  daemon from the package "ntp" is installed, then ntpdate is not
  necessary." Which leads us to the second part of the problem: because
  of the above-mentioned dependency, ntpdate can't be uninstalled even
  if ntp is installed.
