trixie update/upgrade strangeness

Yesterday, an attempt to install topcat package failed. So I ran "apt update" and "apt upgrade". The first surprise was the extent upgrade, it was much more extensive than I would have expected. After the upgrade the X terminal crashed. Today wifi started misbehaving so I rebooted the box.

Where to start diagnosing a problem like this? Minimal install -- no desktop. No "oops" in syslog though there are some warnings. System seems to shut down properly when power button pressed. Yesterday I could even ssh in, but that facility disappeared. Asrock H570M-ITX/ac with Intel i3-10100.

mod_perl installation docs

Hi, Trying to do things the Debian way, I installed the apache source package. My only confusion there was I missed any instruction regarding the order in which the debs were to be installed. So I took a guess and installed them one by one, installing extra packages as required by dependencies.

I'm trying to install Perl onto a new system. apt-get install perl won't work because perl-base is required and a conflict arises. That is, apt-get install perl-base says the latest version is already installed, but this appears to be version 5.6.1-7, and apt-get install perl wants version
