Public bug reported:
From https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1148080:
If openssh-server is purged after openssh-server-gssapi is installed,
the postrm script unconditionally removes configuration which it thinks
still belongs to openssh-server, while in fact, openssh-server-gssapi
has become the owner of that configuration. The deleted files involve
the host keys, sshd_config, and systemd unit activation, rendering the SSH
service unusable. openssh-client/openssh-client-gssapi has a similar problem,
although it is less severe.
