That's curious. This is in the source package:

# vim:syntax=apparmor
#include <tunables/global>

/usr/sbin/ntpd flags=(attach_disconnected) {
  #include <abstractions/base>
  #include <abstractions/nameservice>

  # conf
  /etc/openntpd/ntpd.conf r,

  # capabilities
  capability kill,
  capability sys_chroot,
  capability setgid,
  capability setuid,
  capability sys_time,
  capability sys_nice,

  /usr/sbin/ntpd mrix,
  /var/lib/openntpd/db/ntpd.drift rw,
  /var/lib/openntpd/run/ntpd.sock rw,

}

It looks like half the change has already been integrated, but not the
systemd-journald socket.

Ah this takes me back. :) I learned a huge amount on irc.eskimo.com back
in the day. Belated by two decades, thanks!

Thanks
