So it seems that pps-tools needs to be added as a build dependency to
the ntp package. Here is the current Debian ntp package control file:
http://anonscm.debian.org/viewvc/pkg-ntp/ntp/trunk/debian/control?view=markup

A bug report to do exactly that already exists since October 2012:
https://bugs.debian.org/691672

If that were fixed, the change would then flow down to Ubuntu.

Here is the Debian package information for pps-tools:
