[Bug 1575198] Re: [18.04 FEAT] ubuntu-installer/tasksel: OpenSSH server is not selected by default

[Frank Heimes]

The debian-installer makes sure that everything that is essential for the installation is automatically installed. This includes the openssh-server - the openssh-server will be installed even if not selected (so in contrast to the bug description it does not need to be selected).
Test: start an installation, do not select openssh-server and you will still be able to use the 2nd d-i stage as well as being able to login to the system remotely after the installation.
Hence this is just a 'cosmetic' feature and is marked with "wishlist" and low priority and is unlikely to be changed soon in d-i.

  Request for enhancement:
  During Ubuntu 16.04 LTS server installation it is required to select manually the installation of OpenSSH server. For z Systems this should be enabled per default, since Linux on z Systems (in contradiction to other platforms) has only "rudimentary consoles" and always rely on a console reachable via ssh.
