Oh man - read the mail again. ssh-nonfree reads the configuration files of
openssh. Therefore it seems that ssh-nonfree should depend on ssh...
If you want my vote let's call the original ssh ssh-nonfree, make openssh
provide ssh and let the users chose between them. It seems openssh is not
really ready as a drop in replacement and I would not like to see Debian
systems break...
