I'd never heard of +really, although that still sounds like a bit of a different scenario. I think that there is a 3rd option. With HTTP::OAI, we use the older version in Koha's Apt repo and don't use the Debian version which is too new. "libhttp-oai-perl (>= 3.2) | libhttp-oai-3.27-perl, libhttp-oai-perl (<< 4.0) | libhttp-oai-3.27-perl" http://debian.koha-community.org/koha/pool/main/libh/ https://packages.debian.org/bullseye/libhttp-oai-perl That seems like the same thing that we'd want to do here. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes. _______________________________________________ Koha-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.koha-community.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/koha-bugs website : http://www.koha-community.org/ git : http://git.koha-community.org/ bugs : http://bugs.koha-community.org/
