Package: openssh-server
Version: 1:10.2p1-5
Followup-For: Bug #1129956

Dear Maintainer,

I forgot to mention that both my main machine and my laptop are running Debian 
sid from long time ago, being regularly full-upgrade-d (main machine > 10 
years, laptop since > 5 years).
I vaguely remember at some point the password hashing algo for /etc/shadow was 
changed.
I wonder maybe my /etc/shadow uses the old password hash (for the root and user 
accounts I test) which may not be supported in the newer ssh/login/whatever 
service? 
And could this be the reason it does not reproduce with brand pristine install 
of debian testing upgraded to sid..?

Just a thought
