>Description:
A default install of base will create the directory /etc/ntp.

However - the settings specified in /etc/defaults/* point to a config file in /etc/ntp.conf
>How-To-Repeat:
default install. observe
>Fix:
Either remove /etc/ntp, point ntpd its config in /etc/defaults/ to the right place or document what its chroot concept would be.

State-Changed-Why:  
After talking to the NTP maintainer, this is not a bug.  The purpose 
of /etc/ntp/ is to ise as a place to store things like ntp keys and 
other related config, to try to keep /etc less cluttered.  This 
directory will be used more in the future.
