The members describe one theme: a bundle-smoke-metadata PowerShell test reportedly has a problem on PowerShell 5.1 because ZipArchiveMode requires the System.IO.Compression assembly to be preloaded. Two pull requests with identical titles propose a test change to preload it; their outcome is not stated.
