Package: openntpd
Version: 3.9p1-3
Severity: serious

When the default (Debian) NTP servers are not reachable, the openntpd 
package fails to install:
Dépaquetage de openntpd (à partir de .../openntpd_3.9p1-3_i386.deb) ...
Paramétrage de openntpd (3.9p1-3) ...
Starting openntpd: invoke-rc.d: initscript openntpd, action "start" failed.
dpkg : erreur de traitement de openntpd (--configure) :
 le sous-processus post-installation script a retourné une erreur de sortie 
d'état 1
Des erreurs ont été rencontrées pendant l'exécution :
 openntpd
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

Modifying /etc/openntpd/ntpd.conf to provide working NTP servers in the 
machine's environment is enough to allow the package to install, but it 
must install in all cases, even when on a private network.

Cheers,

I can't reproduce this anymore with a current version of ntp,
so I'm closing this.
