I think that program maintains comments in the file that are used for safe
upgrades at a later time. I'm not that concerned with it. When I upgrade, I'll
hack the file again. However, it's a great idea if you have to upgrade 100
machines and you don't want to edit each and every inetd.conf file.

#telnet stream tcp nowait telnetd.telnetd /usr/sbin/tcpd
/usr/sbin/in.telnetd
I have it turned off. ;-)

It's in non-us on the ftp site.
http://www.debian.org/Packages/stable/non-us/ssh.html
Try this:
echo "deb http://non-US.debian.org/debian-non-US potato/non-US main contrib
non-free" >> /etc/apt/sources.list
apt-get update
apt-get install ssh
