The default bitlbee gid is the same as the gid of ntp (65). This means that extra/bitlbee and extra/ntp can't (properly) coexist on the same machine.
This task depends upon

I do not see the problem:
- the ntp package does not create any uid/gid.
- the openntpd package does create uid=gid=87.
- the bitlbee package does create uid=gid=65.

Could you explain how ntp is related to gid=65?

Ah, looks like the "ntp" group on my machine was a relic from an older configuration of mine which I forgot to remove. My apologies for the bogus bug report.
