Bug#1012768: Bug#1012785: libgsasl7 depends on outdated gsasl-common version 1.10.0-5

Sleeping on this, how about libgsasl18 declare a dependency on 'gsasl-
common (>= 1.10.0-3)' instead of 'gsasl-common (= ${source:Version})'?

Then old libgsasl17 with gsasl-common can coexist with new libgsasl18. 
 
We would want gsasl-common to be upgraded to >= 1.11.3-2 eventually,
but it can only happen once libgsasl7 is removed from the system,
allowing the latest version of gsasl-common to be installed rather than
the hard versioned dependency from libgsasl7.

I suppose we should let the transition finish first, and then address
this.
