As far as I can tell from 402806, with a bit of guessing, what happens
is:

1. unpack latest ssh-krb5
   (old conffiles not deleted)
2. unpack openssh-server (conflicts is now satisfied)
   - detect conflicting conffile
   - replaces ineffective because ssh-krb5 has already been upgraded and no 
longer satisfies
     version criteria.
   - display error.
