in reply to strawberry perl updates

strawberry perl typically adds another .1 to the end of the actual perl version for their bundle's version. So "perl 5.32.1" is bundled as a strawberry installer or zip with "5.32.1.1"

I was going to direct you to https://strawberryperl.com/releases.html to see their release names over time (and to check myself if they'd ever done a .2 or higher suffix), but they appear to be down right now.

Fortunately, their whois says they've got another year before their domain expires. I put in an issue on their website github, but given their lack of updates over the past years, I don't know if they have anyone who will get their website working again.

But since I was at their github for the website, I looked at releases.html and found that yes, they have both 5.26.0.1 and 5.26.0.2 (for example), so they occasionally do uprev their sub-minor revision. Oh, and looking at their release-notes source folder, there was apparently a patched perl.h for the 5.26.0.2 version.

But the short version: if perl -V is reporting 5.32.1, then the 5.32.1.1 bundle is the bundle that provides that.

    Their website is back up now. It was just a temporary issue
