DietPi + Allo Web GUI: Now available

I downloaded the Allo GUI image from
https://dietpi.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=2317&p=8869#p8869
Version of dietpi is 6.6
Allo GUI loads up fine and reports that an update is available.
Run the update and the GUI becomes a garbled mess with update still pending.
Numerous reboots and power cycles. Same.
SSH’ed in and ran dietpi-update. Update is stuck at ‘NTPD: Waiting for completion of systemd-timesyncd (x/60)’. Repeats 60 times then offers to retry. Fails repeatedly.

It appears that an update from 6.6 to 6.7 occurs but the subsequent update to 6.9 bombs with the NTPD time out.

I successfully updated an Allo GUI from 6.8 to 6.9 a few days ago on another Pi and DigiOne and a USBridge.

Anyone else having issues or does @Dan_Knight have any thoughts?
