You're right, I should have checked that. I don't know why that didn't work...

Apt clearly tried to transfer ownership, but dpkg gagged anyway. Unfortunately, I did dpkg --purge ssh-krb5; apt-get install openssh-client openssh-server (so I'd have a working ssh), and can no longer really test this... I know that dselect is somewhat deprecated (though I still prefer it over aptitude for its package layout and interactive dependency resolution), but apt/dpkg are not, and they are causing the problems here. Reassign to apt? This was during an upgrade from etch 12/7 to etch 12/12, not sarge to etch. One more thing: Kerberos options seem unsupported in openssh-server. See attached. And this is after dpkg --purge ssh-krb5 so I don't think it's a leftover conffile.
