Comment:
The issue with perl-Test-Simple is that the perl package directly provides perl-Test-Simple at an earlier revision number (perl-Test-Simple-1.302175_1 vs. perl-Test-Simple-1.302175_2). So xbps wants to remove perl when installing perl-Test-Simple. The remove error on perl-Net-SSLeay is because it is apparently the only perl package to depends on perl>=5.32.0_1 instead of perl>=0. If you force remove perl-Net-SSLeay you can see this installing flip in action:

```
$ sudo xbps-remove -F perl-net-SSLeay
$ sudo xbps-install perl-Test-Simple

Name             Action    Version           New version            Download size
perl             remove    5.32.1_1          -                      - 
perl-Test-Simple install   -                 1.302175_2             190KB 

$ sudo xbps-install perl

Name             Action    Version           New version            Download size
perl-Test-Simple remove    1.302175_2        -                      - 
perl             install   -                 5.32.1_1               - 
```

The two packages install the test code into different places (core_perl/Test[2] vs vendor_perl/Test[2]) but collide at the man page level. It's probably fine to drop perl-Test-Simple since it's internal to the main perl package already.
