In this case "openssh" isn't installed in the root filesystem, only  
"openssh-sftp-server".

populate_sdk resolves the globs for installed packages with  
"oe-pkgdata-util glob /tmp/installedpkgs *-dev"
which falls back to using the PN ("openssh") to find a match for openssh-
sftp-server.
That behaviour is useful for libraries like 
libboost-thread1.77.0 -> boost-dev, so I guess it's best left as-is.
