Please, please, please don't put this in a postinstall script.  I, for
one, would not want any postinstall script to muck around with my
directory and file permissions (as I don't have any control over whether
that script runs).  I'd suggest putting it into ssh-host-config instead
(and, of course, the README file for those who prefer to configure sshd
manually).
