On the fedora user list I was just pointed to:


https://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org/packages/system-config-date/1.10.9/3.fc25/noarch/

And I decided, what the heck, give it a try, it is noarch....  SO:

dnf install /home/rgm/Downloads/system-config-date-1.10.9-3.fc25.noarch.rpm

and there was the map!  but no ntp servers?  Had to add the fedora pool, 
and it then worked.

So I am set for F28, but what about the next release?  It would be good 
to get this feature into Xfce.
