Hope this helps if someone has the same problem:

After getting the above error, put an
exit 0
in the second line of /etc/init.d/ntp-server

Then do an
dpkg --configure -a
which should then happily configure ntp-simple,
thus creating the user

Afterwards, remove the exit-statement from the
initscript,
/etc/init.d/ntp-server start
and everything should be fine :)
