Hi All,

This isn't an ASSP bug, but a heads up to anyone building a new system. 
As it turns out, apparently Net::SMTP::SSL hasn't been updated in many 
years. Recent changes in libnet (post 1.27) mean that Net::SMTP::SSL 
will no longer pass build tests.

The cpan bug is here:

https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=99454

The discussion there implies that Net::SMTP::SSL is going to become a 
pseudo package for Net::SMTP as this supports SSL natively now.

On a test machine I am building (Ubuntu 14.04 LTS with perl 5.18.2) I 
had to do the following to get Net::SMTP::SSL to install:

perl -MCPAN -e shell
o conf urllist push http://backpan.perl.org/
install SHAY/libnet-1.27.tar.gz

If I do any perl module updates in the future I'm going to have to be 
really careful not to let this upgrade because it could break things again.

All the best,
Colin Waring.
