Hi Guix, this patch set adds Biber, the bibliography backend for biblatex. It's actually supposed to be part of the Texlive distribution, but our Texlive package only comes with a source tarball of Biber.
(I use Biber for Unicode references in APA style.) All packages were linted. The only unusual thing here is that the latest Biber doesn't work with the 2016 Texlive distribution, so I named the latest Biber "biber-next" and added "biber-2.5" with package name "biber", so that users installing "biber" with "texlive" get the right thing. ~~ Ricardo PS: is anyone interested in an effort to update all of our Perl packages?
