Package ntpd has no available version, but exists in the database.
This typically means that the package was mentioned in a dependency and
never uploaded, has been obsoleted or is not available with the contents
of sources.list
E: Package ntpd has no installation candidate
root: /mnt# apt-cache show ntpd
root: /mnt#
