Dear all,
I'd like to post the following news item within the hour.
========
Title: sshd needs restarting after upgrading to openssh-8.2p1
Conent: After upgrading to openssh-8.2p1, the existing SSH daemon will be unable to accept new connections. When upgrading remote hosts, please make sure to restart the SSH daemon using `systemctl restart sshd` right after `pacman -Syu`.

I deeply regret not spotting this while the package was in [testing]. And I also regret not being able to diagnose what the exact problem is just now. Given time is of the essence, I propose posting the above news quickly even I don't consider it a very satisfying solution...
Is it sufficient to add a post_upgrade message?
The issue is that the package is already out iiuc. I had this issue but I blamed my wonky sshd configuration haha... -Santiago
