Closing this issue as it was a debian/control problem in systemd-
timesyncd that dropped "Provides: time-daemon" from the package
declarations in systemd 253.5-1ubuntu3. This prevented apt resolver in
mantic from properly recognizing the conflicts between systemd-timesyncd
and ntpsec. So the resolver couldn't determine that it had to remote
systemd-timesyncd.
This debian/control issue was fixed in systemd 253.5-1ubuntu4 which is
not yet installed in daily mantic builds for cloudimages in lxc. So,
this results in an inability of apt to resolve those conflicts on the
stale systemd-timesyncd 253.5-1ubuntu3 which is installed in those
images.
To resolve this conflict prior to cloudimage updates:
apt update
apt install systemd-timesyncd
apt install ntp # now works fine and removes systemd-timesyncd automatically
because of the proper Provides: time-daemon
