Thanks for your great work, Jiri! I have a minor suggestion to improve this package even further: Could you replace the line license=('Apache') with license=('Apache-2.0'), so the correct SPDX identifier is used? :)

@kemelzaidan I see what you mean but I'm not sure if that's the way it should work on Arch. You can have multiple NTP servers installed just fine (I do), it's just that it's up to you to make sure only one is running (also enforced in the service file via "Conflicts" for known alternatives; ntpsec and openntpd are missing right now though). For example, the probably most popular alternative NTP package, chrony, doesn't declare any additional provides/conflicts. In an unlikely use case you could even have multiple running at the same time, an NTP server from one package and a client from another. As far as Debian goes, they do a lot of things differently, for example, Debian will enable and start a service right after installation - that might be one of the reasons why they are exclusive to each other.

I believe it should provide ntp (take a look at the ntpsec package.

I should also conflict with the other daemons that do the same ntp syncronization: ntp, ntpsec, chrony, openntpd. Take a look at this debian example: <img alt="screenshot" src="https://imgur.com/a/Eeobur0" />
