[Bug 1769284] Re: ssh client: blowfish-cbc required - missing in bionic

[Seth Arnold]

Hello Jens, I believe the openssh-client-ssh1 package provides a client
that can be used to communicate with legacy hardware.

Thanks

Title:
  ssh client: blowfish-cbc required - missing in bionic

Status in openssh package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix
Status in openssh-ssh1 package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  In bionic openssh client/server ships without blowfish-cbc, arcfour,
  arcfour128, arcfour256 and cast128-cbc. Unfortunately they are
  required for backward compatibility, especially for embedded devices,
  which do not support other ciphers (e.g. Rittal Liquid Cooling Package
  for racks).

  So disable them per default is ok, but one should still be able to use
  them on demand for older, non-upgradable HW/SW envs.
