If you are using Ubuntu 15.04 Vivid it is now packaged and installable using the following command:

sudo apt-get install ntpstat

If you are using 14.10 or older you can try downloading the package from:

and install the deb file using the following command (using the appropiate file path and 64/32bit version in the file name):

sudo dpkg -i ntpstat_0.0.0.1-1_amd64.deb

I tested the above method for 14.10 and ntpstat did not pull in any extra dependancies for me, but YMMV.

There is one here in Launchpad. It might be unstable. Download the deb file suited to your computer and install it using:

sudo dpkg -i <path-to-downloaded-deb-package>
