gssproxy does not start on zesty

[Bruce Campbell]

systemctl cannot launch gssproxy in zesty with version gssproxy-0.5.1-2.

systemctl status gssproxy reports:

$ sudo systemctl status gssproxy

Replacing the gssproxy with a new version built from the github repo shows no such issue.

I checked and this is also an issue in artful.
