      Leapp in-place upgrade from RHEL 7 to 8 no longer enables chronyd.service on completion. This appears to be a regression as this did not occur with previous versions of leapp. 

      2024 - chronyd.service remains enabled after

      Steps to reproduce

      1. Perform leapp upgrade on  RHEL 7 system that currently utilizes NTP
      2. Once complete, verify the chronyd service status

      Expected results

      The chronyd service should be active. This was the previous behavior and we now see that this is no longer enabled as part of the process.

      Actual results

      The chronyd service remains disabled upon completion of the IPU upgrade.
