sshd_config is not included in a package, but is generated by postinst script of "openssh-server" package. To see it use "ucfq /etc/ssh/sshd_config". Not all packages use ucf, so more universal (but less convenient) way of doing this is: rgrep sshd_config /var/lib/dpkg/info > on another note, is there a mailing list just for the package manager?
