Debian ntp-dev package update "one-liner"

This one-liner is useful for situations where the binary ntp-dev Debian package is not usable (e.g. non-i386 architectures)

cd /usr/local/src/ntp && \
apt-get update && rm -rf ntp-dev* && dpkg-repack ntp-dev && \
apt-get --build source ntp-dev && \
dpkg -i `ls ntp-dev_*_amd64.deb | tail -n1`
