Public bug reported:

ntp postinstall attempts to perform a MD5 sum, which is a no-no with FIPS.
I have not encountered this bug on previous LTS versions of Ubuntu with FIPS.

Description:   Ubuntu 22.04.4 LTS
Release:       22.04

ntp:
  Installed: 1:4.2.8p15+dfsg-1ubuntu2
  Candidate: 1:4.2.8p15+dfsg-1ubuntu2
  Version table:
 *** 1:4.2.8p15+dfsg-1ubuntu2 500
        500 file:/home...
        100 /var/libdpkg/status

[Actions performed]
I attempted to install ntp onto jammy 22.04.4 LTS with FIPS. 
$ sudo pro attach key-goes-here
$ sudo pro enable fips-updates
$ reboot
--after reboot--
$ sudo apt update
$ sudo apt install ntp

[What you expected to happen]
ntp tool installs prior to personal configuration, does not report anything in 
red

[What happened instead]
Job for ntp.service failed because the control process exited with error code.
[...]
Feb 21 15:53:32 user ntpd[35638]: MD5 init failed
