You seem to have two versions of ssh installed on the affected boxes.  The
debian one won't be reported by rpm.  Maybe those boxes have been cracked,
or maybe the debian ssh has always been there but either previously worked
so it wasn't noticed or the update changed which one got loaded.  Perhaps
something was moved and there is a .rpmnew file that would have handled
that.
