The previous comments from Matthew and myself in this bug still stand.
Please provide:
* /var/log/dpkg.log* (which may show what version you were coming
from)
* the output of 'debconf-show openssh-server'
* /etc/ssh/sshd_config
* any other /etc/ssh/sshd_config.* files, especially
/etc/ssh/sshd_config.dpkg-old

I don't know whom you were speaking to, but that seems highly unlikely
here; /etc/ssh/sshd_config is managed by the openssh-server maintainer
scripts, not by dpkg as some configuration files are. In any event,
this wouldn't be a productive first line of investigation - if it were
true, we'd arrive at it by other means.
