Optimized module loading for forking or non-forking processes

The 'prefork' pragma is intended to allow module writers to optimise module loading for *both* scenarios with as little additional code as possible. prefork.pm is intended to serve as a central and optional marshalling point for state detection (are we running in compile-time or run-time mode) and to act as a relatively light-weight module loader.

Versions, suites, and repositories

Each row is recorded package-index metadata for one version, architecture, suite, and repository. Names, URLs, and sizes are source-reported; a link is a potentially mutable retrieval location, not an OpenFactory redistribution claim or proof that OpenFactory retained the artifact bytes.

Checksums and observation dates

For an APT source, signature verification authenticates the repository metadata chain and the Packages index containing this source-reported artifact digest. It does not certify package safety.

Catalog record completeness

The completeness score measures metadata coverage, not software quality, security, compatibility, or suitability.
