* Split the ssh binary package into openssh-client and openssh-server

  (closes: #39741). openssh-server depends on openssh-client for some
  common functionality; it didn't seem worth creating yet another package
  for this.
* New transitional ssh package, depending on openssh-client and
  openssh-server. May be removed once nothing depends on it.
* When upgrading from ssh to openssh-{client,server}, it's very difficult
  for the maintainer scripts to find out what version we're upgrading from
  without dodgy dpkg hackery. I've therefore taken the opportunity to move
  a couple of debconf notes into NEWS files, namely ssh/ssh2_keys_merged
  and ssh/user_environment_tell.
* In general, upgrading to this version directly from woody without first
  upgrading to the version in sarge is not currently guaranteed to work
  very smoothly due to the aforementioned version discovery problems.

+_Description: Do you want /usr/lib/ssh-keysign to be installed SUID root?
+ You have the option of installing the ssh-keysign helper with the SUID bit
+ set.
+ .
+ If you make ssh-keysign SUID, you will be able to use SSH's Protocol 2
+ host-based authentication.
+ .
+ If in doubt, I suggest you install it with SUID.  If it causes problems
+ you can change your mind later by running:   dpkg-reconfigure ssh
