Could you please explain how ntp-server was configured on your system
without this dependency being satisfied first? Both ntp-refclock and
ntp-simple create the ntp system user in their postinsts in the current
unstable version.
You didn't include any information in your report about which versions of
ntp-server's dependencies are installed, so if the version number in this
dependency is wrong, I can't guess how based on the packages currently
available in the archive.
