I upgraded to Ubuntu 17.10 to fix some Emby (and Plex, but not so much)
h/w transcode issues. This killed my LMS becasue I didn't think about
perl versions. I am now, temporarily, running LMS on a Windows PC using
a network share - but that gets turned off most of the time.

It's been a very long time since I got into any real perl source
maintenance but I thought I'd give it a try, downloaded the various
archives and also cloned the git tree. I gave up after a while...

One takeaway is that if nothing else, Digest::SHA1 should be replaced
with Digest::SHA globally, as it's a drop in replacement except that for
the OO interface you have to call ->new(1) instead of just ->new. This
however means replacing the ./CPAN/Digest/SHA1* stuff I think.

Not had a chance to look in detail, but have any records been kept of
the changes made to the "custom" modules that are kept around and in the
case of performance-only changes, with modern hardware is there any
point in bothering if the upstream will not change things?

Confused, of London...
