Failing nodes: homoeopatix, galantine

Summary

The timer does not work

Steps to reproduce

• disable the timer if it is not anyway sudo systemctl stop dnf-automatic.timer
• Make a change in the config, to trigger a run of configure autoupdate and its handlers.
• Have a look if the timer is enabled/running systemctl status dnf-automatic.timer

What is the current bug behavior?

• the timer is not enabled, though the handlers run
• the next task (install ntpdate) aborts with a connection timeout

What is the expected correct behaviour?

• timer is enabled like when running sudo systemctl start dnf-automatic.timer
• ansible does not stop at the next task

Relevant logs and/or screenshots
