[chrony-dev] /usr/sbin/chronyd: Starting with kernel v3.0, chronyd will refuse to start

[Christian Kujau <lists@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Debian users are already seeing[0] this:

sys_linux.c:742:(get_version_specific_details)[02-12:36:37] Linux kernel major=3 minor=0 patch=0
sys_linux.c:823:(get_version_specific_details)[02-12:36:37] Fatal error :Kernel's major version not supported yet, sorry

The following fixed it for me and chronyd is working again with Linux 
3.0-rc1+:

diff --git a/sys_linux.c b/sys_linux.c
index 441e6e4..27ae990 100644
--- a/sys_linux.c

       break;
     case 2:
+    case 3:
       switch (minor) {
         case 0:
           if (patch < 32) {

Thanks,
Christian.
