The command as documented was wrong. We need to use the --set

Fixes commit d5cbe7b4bee5dec9e28b1db03e933c97ef6d11e0.

@@ -36,7 +36,7 @@ to interoperate with RHEL 5 sshd are disabled. To enable them you may
need to run this command on the conversion server (ie. ssh client),
but read L<update-crypto-policies(8)> first:
- # update-crypto-policies LEGACY
+ # update-crypto-policies --set LEGACY
Personally I would not be in favour of recommending that people
change their crypto policies host-wide, especially since the
doc is not telling them to set it back to the stronger default
policy later.
If the problem is simply the SSH server, then it ought to be
possible to address this using the "Ciphers" config option
for the SSH client, so that it doesn't weaken crypto for the
entire host.
