Hi Steve,

I currently have "ntpq" building and installing correctly...

Can someone tell me what it takes to get the "timedatectl" command utility built into Yocto kernel image ?

I see it referenced in both :

openembedded-core/meta/recipes-core/systemd/systemd_234.bb:                ${bindir}/timedatectl \
poky/meta/recipes-core/systemd/systemd_234.bb:                ${bindir}/timedatectl \

It comes with systemd. Use it as your init system and then you'll have the command.
