Public bug reported:
Many of the apport hooks try to include some information about why a
service didn't start correctly. One recent report included the
following:
May 26 18:39:19 ux305ua-linux systemd[1]: Starting OpenBSD Secure Shell serv....
May 26 18:39:19 ux305ua-linux sshd[2500]: /etc/ssh/sshd_config line 64: miss....

exited, ...a[0m

May 26 18:39:19 ux305ua-linux systemd[1]: [0;1;39mssh.service: Failed with
result 'e....[0m
Hint: Some lines were ellipsized, use -l to show in full.
The actual error information is this:
/etc/ssh/sshd_config line 64: miss....
and
Failed with result 'e....
This is very nearly useless.
We should include the -l parameter as suggested so that we stand a
chance of seeing an error that doesn't occur in the first twenty
characters of program output.
Thanks
