A few days ago, an apt-get update; apt-get dist-upgrade broke ssh for me. Apparently the version of ssh that was installed was compiled against a later version of the openssl library than I have. So I attempted to compile the ssh package from source against my version of the openssl library. This failed saying it could not find libwrap. However, when I checked for libwrap, it was there. Does anyone know what is going on here or what to do?Thanks, Anthony
Here's how I got ssh working again. 1) make sure you have the following packages installed: debhelper libwrap0-dev libpam0g-dev libssl-dev 2) run this command apt-get --compile source ssh 3) install the resulting ssh debThere may be other required packages that I already had installed that you still need. If so, the apt-get command will die with a failure. You should be able to tell from the error message which packages you still need to install.
