Tnx a lot ,I'll wait ,maybe someone can tell me how to remove the whole directory /ssh from /etc , and to make after that a clean install of openssh...
Cheers

I had this same exact problem last night. IIRC all I ended up doing was firing up xterm as root and then doing an: apt-get upgrade (or) apt-get upgrade openssh-common. I think I did the latter and it successfully upgraded the server and client to the new version.
