Persuade Heimdal upstream to provide an soname that uniquely identifies this
library in the face of other, pre-existing libgssapi packages, and barring
that, add a Debian-specific soname component to it?
Or if the libraries are actually fully ABI-compatible, perhaps the two
packages could have the same Provides that could be used in the shlibs?
