(Will the connections be reestablished after the restart? Does this
disturb the upgrade process?)

This should be your concern and not ours. If you demand stunnel4 to be
restarted from openssl scripts, it is your responsibility that this is

options other than the current choice.

Please confirm, that we should include stunnel4 in the restart list.
