I beg your pardon, you are absolutely correct that it is not installed by default. (I have no idea how it did get installed since I had a fresh install of the OS and I install everything from command line, I guess it was dragged in as a dependency from some other package).
You are also right that there is a possible use case where both are installed on different ports but this is surely rare. Could the package give a warning if installed with a rival claimant to port 22? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to openssh in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/806231 Title: Not clear if sshd failed to bind to :22.
