The modules pulled in for biber have had the usual churn since I last
looked at them (this time, I checked on 6th August).
Some of this is just newer versions (e.g. updates for newer tzdata within
DateTime-TimeZone and DateTimeLocale).
An update to DateTime-Format-Strptime means that it no longer requires
Package-DeprecationManager (or the deps for that).
Net-SSLeay now has a proper release (1.88)
XML-LibXML is now happy with all libxml-2.9 versions (it previously
reported during configuration that it was untested). Unfortunately, it now
requires Alien-Libxml2 which pulls in several other modules.
LWP-MediaTypes now needs Test-Fatal for its testsuite.
Unfortunately, for me Net-SSLeay now fails one of its external tests.
{{{
# Failed test 'get_subjectAltNames works'
# at t/external/15_altnames.t line 31.
# Looks like you failed 1 test of 9.
t/external/15_altnames.t ...............
Dubious, test returned 1 (wstat 256, 0x100)
Failed 1/9 subtests
}}}
This appears to be [https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=129542]
where the test worked in some places but not in others (one comment said
it worked in the UK, but it doesn't for me). Will document that.
