[Bug 467426] [NEW] openssh package installation crashed when installed via synaptic package manager

[paplino]

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.
