Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better.
9.04 to 10.04 is not a normal upgrade path; you should normally step through 9.10 (as described here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes). Please could you try running the following commands in a terminal to see if this resolves the issue: sudo dpkg-reconfigure openssh-client sudo apt-get -f install Please update this bug report if this does resolve the problem. ** Changed in: openssh (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/734645 Title: package openssh-client 1:5.3p1-3ubuntu5 failed to install/upgrade: -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
