Then it should just require a time-sync daemon, and not a specific one
imho.

Perhaps both the 'chrony' and 'ntp' packages should Provide
'server(smtp)' (similar to how sendmail/postfix work with SMTP)?  That
way anaconda could just require 'server(ntp)'.

Either way, this isn't something that would need to be solved in the
upstream distribution.
