Bug#680678: task-ssh-server: depend on 'ssh' instead of 'openssh-server'

Package: task-ssh-server
Version: 3.09
Severity: wishlist

Dear Maintainer,

'task-ssh-server' currently depends on 'openssh-server';
IMHO, it wouldn't be wrong to depend on 'ssh' instead.

'ssh' depends on 'openssh-server' and 'openssh-client' (while 'openssh-client'
is a dependency of 'openssh-server', so it's pulled by 'task-ssh-server' too).



Debian Release: wheezy/sid
APT prefers testing
APT policy: (500, 'testing')
Architecture: amd64 (x86_64)
Foreign Architectures: i386

Kernel: Linux 3.2.0-2-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores)
Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8)
Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash

Versions of packages task-ssh-server depends on:
ii openssh-server 1:6.0p1-2
ii tasksel 3.09

task-ssh-server recommends no packages.

task-ssh-server suggests no packages.

openssh-client is priority standard, so this would add a metapackage
with no actual change to what's installed. Unless the user selects
ssh-server and de-selects standard.
