The modules on the previous page are referenced from other pages in BLFS, but these modules are only in the book as dependencies of those modules. If you use the CPAN install method, you do not need to read this page.
The BLFS editors pay much less attention to these modules, and the
versions will not be regularly reviewed. In all cases, only the
required or recommended dependencies are listed - there might be
other modules which allow more tests to be run, but omitting them
will still allow the tests to PASS
.
The links on this page (to metacpan.org) should go to "known good" versions, for which their dependencies are correct. If you wish to use a later version, please check the Changes file at https://metacpan.org - sometimes added dependencies are listed, other times not. Some of these modules have very frequent updates, often bringing different dependencies. The linked metacpan.org versions below were known to work with the module versions in BLFS when last reviewed.
However, if you notice that the Changes file for a newer version than is in the current development book reports a fix for a security issue, please report this to either the blfs-dev or the blfs-support list.
Similarly, if you discover that an updated module on the previous page needs an extra dependency, please report this.
