[Bug 707098] Re: "oom" change in 1:5.3p1-3ubuntu5 causes "operation not permitted"

[Alan Porter]

Looking a little deeper, it looks like OpenSSH has had this "oom never"
line ever since Ubuntu 10.04 came out, and that Virtuozzo containers
have had to modify this file all along.  I never saw it before because
my Virtuozzo provider had a pristine 10.04 image that they deployed -- I
assume, with the "oom never" line commented out.  So this was the first
time that the package had been upgraded on my system, and it asked me if
I wanted to "keep my changes" or "install the package maintainer's
version".

So maybe this is not so much of a bug in OpenSSH as it is a quirk in
Virtuozzo (that I did not know about at the time of upgrade).  Not
knowing what this "oom never" option is all about, I can not make that
call.
