cvs: consider building with gssapi / krb5 support

[Tomas Hoger]

Binary package hint: cvs

Please consider building cvs package with GSSAPI / krb5 support to make it possible to use :gserver: type repositories.

It should be enough to move libkrb5-dev from Build-Conflicts to Build-Depends in debian/control and change --without-gssapi to --with-gssapi in debian/rules. This should not introduce new dependencies which are not usually satisfied on users' systems, as openssh already depends on Kerberos libraries.

Procedure above yields working cvs with GSSAPI support both on Feisty and Gutsy.

will be fixed with the next Debian import, after I upload the new cvs package
