Public bug reported:

Hi,

Updated SFTP clients using the PuTTy authentication mechanism like
WinSCP e Filezilla, cause the "Unsupported protocol sequence" error
during authentication on Ubuntu 16.04 and proftpd-basic 1.3.5a-
1ubuntu0.1

The bug was fixed in Proftpd 1.3.6 by the ProftpD team:.

http://bugs.proftpd.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4385

But it will not be fixed by them in Proftpd 1.3.5, which is the version
used in Ubuntu 16.04 and 18.04, because it is no longer supported

The debian versions 8 and 9, still supported, also use ProFTPD 1.3.5 and
they released a fix:

https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=949622

Please, can we have this fix on Ubuntu 16.04 updates which is still
supported?
