Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: ntp

ntpd from package ntp-1:4.2.4p0+dfsg-1ubuntu2 fails to write its drift
file. Log message is

can't open /var/lib/ntp/ntp.drift.TEMP: Permission denied

strace shows it's really trying to write the mentioned file and it's
really getting a EPERM. ntpd is running as root, /var/lib/ntp is owned
and writeable by ntp:ntp, changing the permissions to group-writeable
doesn't help.

** Affects: ntp (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New
