> There's nothing to install the 'ntpdate' package, from universe.
I've tested this on an LXC on trusty:
$ apt-cache policy ntpdate ntpdate: Installed: 1:4.2.6.p5+dfsg-3ubuntu2.14.04.13 Candidate: 1:4.2.6.p5+dfsg-3ubuntu2.14.04.13 Version table: *** 1:4.2.6.p5+dfsg-3ubuntu2.14.04.13 0 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty-updates/main amd64 Packages 500 http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty-security/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 1:4.2.6.p5+dfsg-3ubuntu2 0 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty/main amd64 Packages
And on an LXC on xenial:
$ apt-cache policy ntpdate ntpdate: Installed: (none) Candidate: 1:4.2.8p4+dfsg-3ubuntu5.9 Version table: 1:4.2.8p4+dfsg-3ubuntu5.9 500 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial-updates/main amd64 Packages 500 http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial-security/main amd64 Packages 1:4.2.8p4+dfsg-3ubuntu5 500 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial/main amd64 Packages
And on LXC in bionic:
$ apt-cache policy ntpdate ntpdate: Installed: (none) Candidate: 1:4.2.8p10+dfsg-5ubuntu7.1 Version table: 1:4.2.8p10+dfsg-5ubuntu7.1 500 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic-updates/universe amd64 Packages 500 http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic-security/universe amd64 Packages 1:4.2.8p10+dfsg-5ubuntu7 500 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic/universe amd64 Packages
So it seems like configuring universe would be needed if we're on bionic, just to clarify.
