[Koha] [EXTERNAL] Re: Problem upgrading to 21.05: perlapi-5-24.1 is not available

Hi Mason,

Thanks for the reply! Some of the settings in my Koha setup are considerably different from yours. I should have added that I'm running my instance on a Digital Ocean 64-bit cloud server, and I'm on Ubuntu 18.04, not 20.04 as I thought. Do you think it might be easier for me to set up a fresh instance and export everything from the old system with sqldump? It might be faster, but it would still leave a puzzle...

The upgradable but held back files are these--all of them depend on the mysterious and elusive perlapi-5.24.1:

koha-common/oldstable 21.05.07-1 all [upgradable from: 20.11.04-1]
libcryptx-perl/oldstable 0.063-1~bpo9+1 amd64 [upgradable from: 0.059-1~koha2]
libmojolicious-plugin-openapi-perl/oldstable 4.98+really2.16-koha1 all [upgradable from: 1.15-1~kohadev1]

Here's what I got, with the //*differences from your settings shown like this*//.
