Comment 5 for bug 2037412

Hi Bernard,

hwclock is relatively small package, 6.2KB per https://packages.ubuntu.com/mantic/fake-hwclock, as I mentioned, removing this package blocks VMware vSphere guest os customization feature to work on Ubuntu 23.10, especially for customer who deploy cloud image directly. It will be great Ubuntu 23.10 GA version can add this small package back.

Tracking this issue in VMware bug #3286498
