Bug Description
The ssh package is a transtional upgrade package that depends on both openssh-server and openssh-client. I can't see why this package needs an ssh-server installed.
Furthermore, when trying to install libpam-ssh through aptitude, its dependency resolution causes it to try to install ssh-krb instead of ssh (though this may be more of a problem with aptitude).

I guess this behaviour was correct in Debian Sarge. Since, like Will Dyson mentions, Ubuntu Edgy has split ssh this needs to be adjusted.
People should be free to use openssh-client *or* ssh-krb5. I believe more correct would be to have libpam-
Build-Depends: debhelper (>= 4.0.0), dpatch, gcc (>3.0.0), libtool (>= 1.5.2-1), libssl-dev, libpam-dev, ssh-krb5 | openssh-client | ssh (>= 3.8.1p1)
Cheers,
