Public bug reported:

Hey,

this is the exact same bug as Debian's #670662 and #671626 but as it
affects a stable (LTS) release I thought I would report it too, in case
it can be fixed before the next release.

Basically a multi-arch change in OpenSSL package disabled the crypto
part in ntp, meaning it's not possible anymore to use some kind of
protection, wether on the client part or the server part.

I'm unsure about tagging it security since it's not really a
vulnerability by itself, but you see the point. Attached patch should
fix the problem, but the Debian maintainer tagged the bug “pending” so
you might want to wait for his fix.

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

** Affects: ntp (Debian)

         Status: Unknown
