** Description changed:

  As per RFC 8732, gss-group14-sha1- and gss-gex-sha1-* are considered 
deprecated and should not be used.
  https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc8732#name-deprecated-algorithms
  
  Let's remove them from the default algorithms list.
+ 
+ Note that we do not intend to remove support for those algorithms at
+ this moment. For now, we will just drop them from the default list that
+ the client or the server will try for GSS key exchange in case the user
+ do not specify any algorithms in their configuration file.
+ 
+ The package was successfully built in
+ https://launchpad.net/~athos/+archive/ubuntu/openssh-gssapi/+packages.
+ 
+ The packages in that PPA install and upgrade successfully and are also
+ passing autopkgtest runs.
+ 
+ Since there are no ABI changes (we are changing the default value for a
+ configuration), there is no need to worry about reverse dependencies
+ AFAICT. If this becomes an issue, it would likely be due to some
+ component using a deprecated (insecure) key exchange algorithm.
