Thank you for your report. This looks like a local configuration problem, rather than a bug in Ubuntu. A dependency could not be satisfied and the openssh-client package is in an inconsistent state. You should reinstall that package. You can find pointers to get help for this sort of problem here: http://www.ubuntu.com/support/community
Since we use this bug tracker to track bugs in Ubuntu, rather than configuration problems, I'm marking this bug as 'Incomplete'. This helps us to focus on fixing bugs in Ubuntu. If you believe that this is really a bug, then you may find it helpful to read "How to report bugs effectively" http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/bugs.html. We'd be grateful if you would then provide a more complete description of the problem, explain why you believe this is a bug in Ubuntu rather than a problem specific to your system, and then change the bug status back to New. ** Changed in: openssh (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to openssh in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1546223 Title: package openssh-client 1:6.9p1-2ubuntu0.1 failed to install/upgrade: package is in a very bad inconsistent state; you should reinstall it before attempting configuration Status in openssh package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: At Start computer ProblemType: Package DistroRelease: Ubuntu 15.10 Package: openssh-client 1:6.9p1-2ubuntu0.1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.2.0-27.32-generic 4.2.8-ckt1 Uname: Linux 4.2.0-27-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.19.1-0ubuntu5 Architecture: amd64 Date: Mon Feb 8 23:32:45 2016 DuplicateSignature: package:openssh-client:1:6.9p1-2ubuntu0.1:package is in a very bad inconsistent state; you should reinstall it before attempting configuration ErrorMessage: package is in a very bad inconsistent state; you should reinstall it before attempting configuration InstallationDate: Installed on 2015-03-27 (320 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 14.10 "Utopic Unicorn" - Release amd64 (20141022.1) RelatedPackageVersions: ssh-askpass N/A libpam-ssh N/A keychain N/A ssh-askpass-gnome 1:6.9p1-2ubuntu0.1 SSHClientVersion: OpenSSH_6.9p1 Ubuntu-2ubuntu0.1, OpenSSL 1.0.2d 9 Jul 2015 SourcePackage: openssh Title: package openssh-client 1:6.9p1-2ubuntu0.1 failed to install/upgrade: package is in a very bad inconsistent state; you should reinstall it before attempting configuration UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to wily on 2015-10-23 (110 days ago) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openssh/+bug/1546223/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
