Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better.
On upgrading a service this service has to be restarted to pick up the fixes. Rather rarely a real issue occurs that the newer version does e.g. fail with the formerly working configuration. But most of the time what happens is, that a service was installed, but stays unconfigured or experimented with but left in a broken state. Now on any update of the related packages that service has to be restarted, but since its config is incomplete/faulty it fails to restart. Therefore the update of that package has to consider itself incomplete. Depending on your particular case there are two solutions: - either remove the offending package if you don't want to continue using it. - Or if you do want to keep it please fix the configuration so that re-starting the service will work. Since it seems likely to me that this is a local configuration problem, rather than a bug in Ubuntu, I'm marking this bug as Incomplete. If indeed this is a local configuration problem, you can find pointers to get help for this sort of problem here: http://www.ubuntu.com/support/community Or if you believe that this is really a bug, then you may find it helpful to read "How to report bugs effectively" http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/bugs.html. We'd be grateful if you would then provide a more complete description of the problem, explain why you believe this is a bug in Ubuntu rather than a problem specific to your system, and then change the bug status back to New. ** Changed in: openssh (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to openssh in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1712496 Title: package ssh 1:7.2p2-4ubuntu2.2 failed to install/upgrade: vereistenproblemen - blijft ongeconfigureerd Status in openssh package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: openssh-server is installed, but cannot be reinstalled ProblemType: Package DistroRelease: Ubuntu 16.04 Package: ssh 1:7.2p2-4ubuntu2.2 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.4.0-92.115-generic 4.4.76 Uname: Linux 4.4.0-92-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.20.1-0ubuntu2.10 AptOrdering: libgraphite2-3: Install openssh-server: Configure ssh: Configure libgraphite2-3: Configure NULL: ConfigurePending Architecture: amd64 Date: Tue Aug 22 10:13:58 2017 ErrorMessage: vereistenproblemen - blijft ongeconfigureerd InstallationDate: Installed on 2014-04-20 (1221 days ago) InstallationMedia: Xubuntu 14.04 LTS "Trusty Tahr" - Release amd64 (20140416.2) PackageArchitecture: all RelatedPackageVersions: dpkg 1.18.4ubuntu1.2 apt 1.2.24 SourcePackage: openssh Title: package ssh 1:7.2p2-4ubuntu2.2 failed to install/upgrade: vereistenproblemen - blijft ongeconfigureerd UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openssh/+bug/1712496/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
