Package: ssh-krb5
Version: 1:7.6p1-2
Severity: normal

I'd like to remove the ssh-krb5 transitional package, since it's been
around since 2006 and we really shouldn't need to keep transitional
packages in the archive for over a decade.

However, this isn't quite just a straightforward transitional package
with only dependencies: it also has postinst code to enable
GSSAPIAuthentication and GSSAPIKeyExchange.  When we added this
originally in https://bugs.debian.org/390986, Russ (CCed) said:

>  * openssh-server doesn't enable GSSAPI by default.  This is a reasonable
>    default and ideally should be a debconf prompt, but in the interim,
>    installing ssh-krb5 needs to result in a GSSAPI-enabled server.  We
>    therefore need a transitional package that will do the right thing in
>    the configuration.

Russ, do you still think this needs to be a debconf prompt?  If so we
should actually get round to doing it, and it would be less hideously
ugly now that openssh-server uses ucf.

Thanks,

Changes:

 .
   [ Colin Watson ]
   * Remove the decade-old ssh-krb5 transitional package; upgrades of
     openssh-server will preserve existing configuration, and new
     installations should just enable GSSAPIAuthentication and
     GSSAPIKeyExchange in sshd_config (closes: #878626).
   * Support the "noudeb" build profile.
   * Fix putty-transfer regression test.
 .
   [ Anders Kaseorg ]
   * debian/systemd/ssh-agent.service: Add missing dbus dependency.
 .
   [ Jason Duerstock ]
   * Add a "pkg.openssh.nognome" build profile, which disables building the
     ssh-askpass-gnome binary package and avoids the build-dependency on
     libgtk-3-dev (closes: #883819).
