Can not install openssh-server on Ubuntu 16.04
As a fresh new install of Ubuntu 16.04
sudo apt-get install openssh-server
outputs
Also it is a fress install I could not understand why this happens.
dpkg -l openssh\*
Output is
If canonical upgrades to 1:7.2p2-4 for openssh-server version I think problem will be solved.
Also there is a screen shot of synaptics package manager
If I mark for upgrade there is a window shows packages to be removed:
Any help will be appriciated.
Solution 1:
Try to perform a apt update before :
apt-get clean
apt-get update
apt-get install openssh-server
I was getting the same error and I didn't need to change the server.
Solution 2:
I was getting the exact same error.
In the Software & Updates changing the server from my local country to Main server, and also adding the Canonical Partners from the "Other Software" tab helped installing the openssh-server in my case. I am not sure which of the two helped.
Solution 3:
I had the same problem. I fixed it by uninstalling the openssh-client
and then installing openssh-server
.
sudo apt-get remove openssh-client
sudo apt-get autoclean
sudo apt-get install openssh-server
