Public bug reported: When installing openssh-server via Synaptic Package Manager, the installer returned an error. Unfortunately, I cannot detail the situation, since that happened yesterday. I could not report the bug at that exact time, because the bug reporting system asked me to verify my e-mail address and my e-mail password is stored in a truecrypt container, so I had to install truecrypt first and then I forgot about it, but, in any case, a second attempt at installing the package was successful.
Perhaps the administrators and contributors to the Ubuntu bug reporting engine should think about a truly automatic error reporting solution, without user accounts, email checking and so on. Just a window asking for some additional details from the user and, afterwards, automatic submitting of that data.
