Sorry but I'm calling bs.
`sshd` isn't a valid package name in Ubuntu repos which Xubuntu uses directly and without modification (it's openssh-server you are looking for) so apt would throw a package not found error.
Also `sshd` doesn't exist in the snap store[1], neither does `openssh-server`[2].
Given Canonical/snapcraft.io are the only source of snaps what you have described is impossible.

- HeckFeck 6y agoI wasn't fibbing; it is disingenuous to lie in support of a cause. I did genuinely encounter this issue. But with what you've said, I'll accept that it wasn't to blame upon snap. While the package wasn't named "sshd", that's an abbreviated way to refer to the ssh daemon. The package name varies between distros, but the config file and executable are known as "sshd". I was installing the ssh daemon package by whatever name the Debian/Ubuntu maintainers christened it. Something else must've broken it, then.
