I know it's a long time, but I'm cleaning up old NTP bugs atm.

-p works fine (?again?).
The default is the retval of gethostname, so if already things are set and you 
specify other it wont work.
But I had success with ntp-keygen -p $(hostname)

That said the option is there.

For ntp-wait the force is also gone from the manpage.

Setting bug to fix released to reflect that.

** Changed in: ntp (Ubuntu)

Title:
  ntp-keygen documentation lists options that ntp-keygen does not
  support

Status in ntp package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  I'm running precise amd64, but the problem appears to exist on oneiric i386 
and amd64 as well.  Natty and older versions support a -p option in ntp-keygen, 
i.e.
  ntp-keygen -p test
  Oneiric and precise do not support this, but the man page has not been 
updated, and the referenced documentation at 
/usr/share/doc/ntp-doc/html/keygen.html (in the ntp-doc package) mentions the 
-p option as well.
