The ebuild currently has this warning: ewarn "After upgrading to openssh-8.2p1 please restart sshd, otherwise you" ewarn "will not be able to establish new sessions. Restarting sshd over a ssh" ewarn "connection is generally safe." Which IMHO is clearer than the introductory paragraph above. Especially, I would suggest the last sentence to be included in the news item.
