We'd be waiting for a year or three, we're only dropping squeeze support as at
3.20.

There are no modules that need to be cpanned for Koha, and if there are, that's
a bug (with the exception of some test case things, I think.) I think having a
significantly useful feature that can't be readily used isn't good, so I'm
trying to get it to a point where it can work.

At the moment, it's not particularly easy, as it needs a version of mojolicious
that isn't packaged at all. I attempted to package that, but ran into
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=748244 which caused it to
fail.

I'll have another go when I get the chance, but depending on bleeding edge
modules is always going to be problematic.
