The problem was the libfido2_1.8.0-1 build previously failed due to the cmake configuration
bug, and libcbor0 got removed from the archive.  This prevented the last build of libfido2
(1.6.0) from being upgraded as it depended on libcbor0.  I suspect openssh was built before libcbor0
was removed.

Dependency problems like this are common on Debian ports and it is often necessary to rebuild
packages to resolve dependencies.
