[pkg-ntp-maintainers] Bug#617734: ntp should recommend lockfile-progs

Package: ntp
Version: 1:4.2.6.p2+dfsg-1+b1
The init scripts for ntp depend on the lockfile utilities to function
correctly. If they are not present, ntp will try to start but will
probably die because the socket is in use by ntpdate. So the ntp
package should at the very least recommend the lockfile-progs package
(or even require it).
