There are two CPAN modules which depend on JSON::RPC::Client:
https://metacpan.org/requires/module/JSON::RPC::Client
But that is only provided by JSON-RPC version 0.96. So installing Finance::Bitcoin
results in JSON-RPC-0.96 being installed, but then cpan-outdated
will always show it as outdated because the newer version is 1.03.
But because 1.03 renamed the client to JSON::RPC::Legacy::Client and because
it the Makefile.PL requires a prompt, doing the standard "cpanm JSON::RPC" will fail
and "cpan-outdated | cpanm" will ALWAYS result in a failed attempt.
