This upgrade has caused all of my tools using the Perl MediaWiki::API
module to break.

Specifically API.php returns its response in gzip format.
MediaWiki::API uses the standard perl LWP module which uses the
Compress::Zlib module to decode web responses in gzip format.

Compress::Zlib is not an installed module on wolfsbane

What I don't understand is how the upgrade has caused this. Could the
upgrade have uninstalled a previously present Compress::Zlib or could
MediaWiki::API work without Compress::Zlib before the upgrade?
