To clarify a couple of things: > Was this behaviour intended?!
No - modifications in /etc are not supposed to be overwritten by packaging without user intervention. Unfortunately though unless someone figures out steps to reproduce the problem, I don't think any progress will be able to be made on this report, and we can't be certain that the problem was caused by a bug rather a local misconfiguration. -- 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/1802090 Title: update overwrites sshd_config Status in openssh package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: The latest update for Bionic (18.04.1) either overwrote or modified my /etc/ssh/sshd_config with the result that I could no longer access my machine using ssh. A specific Port [x] line was removed and replaced by: #Port 22 This was the only change. It happened as part of an automated process this morning - presumably a security update.
