Hi Robie, I tried purging and reinstalling openssh-server, but that failed again with the same error.
I then rebooted the machine and was able to then successfully run apt- get -f install to fix the package installation. Subsequently re- installing the package worked without a problem. Perhaps there was a temporary file causing a problem somewhere, which was automatically cleaned out on reboot? Something leftover from the upgrade to xenial? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1579978 Title: upgrade to 1:7.2p2-4ubuntu1 fails on ubuntu server To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openssh/+bug/1579978/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
