We have a candidate for the upcoming 1.06 bugfix release of Net::DNS.

– Parsing of scoped IPv6 has been fixed when IO::Socket::IP is used (regression since 1.05).
– Interfering middle boxes will no longer be able to hang recursive lookups and interfere with unit tests.
– errorstring() results for non-errors has been restored (“regression” since 1.05)

Besides these bugfixes, this release
– has better TSIG error reporting
– has better Resolver.pm documentation
– and has great coverage results!

If no issues arise, the actual release will follow Monday the 25th of April 2016.
