[Bug 1635707] Re: package openssh-server 1:7.3p1-1 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 255

[Joshua Powers]

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better.

Since there isn't enough information in your report to differentiate
between a local configuration problem and 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
