[Bug 500252] [NEW] dirvish depends on openssh-server

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: dirvish

The "dirvish" package depends on the "ssh" metapackage.  This is
unnecessary, as dirvish can run locally (if the client is set to the
string output by the "hostname" command).

Even if you do want to do remote backups, you only need the client; not
the server.

There is a debian bug for this problem too:

I think it's worth fixing in ubuntu before debian gets around to it
because running an ssh server could be a security problem.
