Okay. But was the lack of the SSL module what was causing the OOM (Out
Of Memory) error?

Unlikely. Was it LMS that caused the OOM? We don't know yet.

- LMS runs on top of Perl

Yes, LMS is written in Perl.

- Some of the modules it uses come from the CPAM, which is a centralised
repository of Perl modules created by various people out there

CPAN, yes

- When I build my LMS package, modules are downloaded from the CAPM and
built into the package "against" (is that the proper word) the Perl
version I  have installed at the time of buillding

I don't know how you build LMS. You shouldn't need to build it, as it's not a compiled application, but interpreted from the source whenever you start it.

- What may be happening is that the Perl version I have since my recent
full update of Arch Linux (an update I performed only because LMS had
stopped working in the first place) is no longer compatible with the
Perl version that held sway when I built the LMS install package ?

That's very well possible. But then I'd be surprised if that caused an OOM. It would rather fail to start or crash hard.

And that I need to rebuild the package?

Maybe you need to elaborate what you're doing when you build.

Or do I need to download a newer version of LMS and start over?

When running LMS 8.0 then I'd almost always suggest to run the latest possible.
