Subject: package/{chrony, ntp, openntpd}: turn off DNSSEC validation
X-Git-Url: https://git.libre-soc.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=c2db53caca63ea8fca17823e37d496774aefd477;p=buildroot.git

package/{chrony, ntp, openntpd}: turn off DNSSEC validation

We have a chicken and egg problem: validation of DNSSEC signatures
doesn't work without a correct clock, but to set the correct clock we
need to contact NTP servers which requires resolving a hostname, which
would normally require DNSSEC validation.

Let's break the cycle by excluding NTP hostname resolution from
validation for now.
