Description:
The attached diff cleans up four minor things in the OpenSSH PKGBUILD:

- drops the --with-md5-passwords configure flag (this was removed upstream)
- drops sha1sums (already have sha256 and blake2)
- uses the CDN link for downloads (more reliable than the ftp site)
- removes the commented-out git source line

Not included in the diff: I would also ask that you consider removing the "install" file and its mention in the PKGBUILD since it only applies to old versions that everyone should've upgraded from by now. (8.0 and 8.2, from 2019 and early 2020)

This task depends upon

Should also note that the git source line was added *because of* the ftp site's unreliability. (I remember the packager complaining on IRC that an OpenSSH update was out but it couldn't be downloaded...)

v2 diff: We can also drop some instances of "cd ${srcdir}" which is implicit.

@blakkheim: Thanks for the ticket and the suggestions.

They are all implemented in SVN now and will be included in the upcoming package upgrade.
I'm still evaluating the .install file removal.
