I've checked again, there was talk about getting 5.32.1 going end of

I think it's unlikely to get released this year since Big Sur has
created a bunch of problems that they'll probably want to get on top of
before collecting the backporting patches.
The current indication is that this release wqill be ready mid to end
of January.
I'll see to get 5.32.0 out for you as a test release (let me know which
distributions you need in addtion to perl itself). Whether we patch
Biber back to 5.30 compatibility or wait for the 5.32.1 update for Biber
remains to be decided later on I'd say.
I've cleaned up the patches so they still apply on top of 5.32.0 where
applicable and built the initial packages. For the rest I'll have to
set up one of my old build machines as I don't want to move my main
build box from the official state (which would mean I could no longer
update other packages).
Great. Thanks for working on this.
