[PLUG] resolution of a wandering clock time

[Michael Rasmussen]

I had a recent problem of my systems with wandering time. This was the
result of using kernel version 5.7.3 on a VPS system.  One of my two
systems upgraded fine. The other one not so well. 

I use Arch Linux and the way to upgrade is to run the command 
  # pacamn -Syu 

Answer yes a time or two, and you've upgraded.  Only this time with a
wandering clock it could not even resolve the mirrors in order to
proceed. 

I opened a ticket with Arch. And, WOW, they were responsive. It seems
like I had a reply and suggestions for what to do within 15 minutes. You
can read the thread here:

I never, ever got support like that while working. Not from any place we
bought stuff from. And they were not closed on the weekend. 

If you are considering changing your distribution, I give Arch Linux a
high recommendation.
