Digest::SHA is the most notable missing package at runtime for a minimal system. Tests don't run at all without Test::Simple (or Test::More). Plack::Test is also a separate package, too... Also, the package for IO::Compress::Gzip should be IO::Compress; as perl-PerlIO-gzip is a different thing entirely which is not relevant to our needs. Test::HTTP::Server::Simple doesn't seem required at all for Plack tests. ExtUtils::MakeMaker needs to be documented as a install dependency for people installing this, too; since AFAIK public-inbox is not yet in any distros.
