Changes for version 1.000003 - 2026-09-08
- Raise the minimum Perl to 5.24 (use 5.024). App::cpm, a hard runtime dependency, and its toolchain now require 5.24+, so older Perls can no longer install lazy's dependencies
- Require App::cpm 1, which excludes the broken 0.998000–0.999.x range; a consumer with a broken cpm preinstalled is now forced to upgrade at install time (GH#38)
- Document in CAVEATS that lazy does not upgrade modules that are already installed but too old — the @INC hook only fires when require can't find the module at all (GH#35)
- Make t/load.t fully offline: it stubbed nothing before and could silently install a cascade of TLS modules (IO::Socket::SSL, Net::SSLeay, ...) into the user's global perl as a side effect of `make test` (GH#39)
- Stop warning on internal @INC skip branches (auto::*.al, Net::DNS::Resolver::*, Encode::ConfigLocal); these fire constantly during normal @INC searching and the warnings were pure noise
