Description:
A pure-perl implementation of Ron Rivest's MD5 Algorithm.


This package is needed in order to update perl-Spreadsheet-ParseExcel to 0.59
(Bug #731907), which introduces use of this module. In theory it would be
interchangeable with the faster Digest::MD5 module but unfortunately
perl-Spreadsheet-ParseExcel accesses a private data structure within this
package rather than using the proper API, which makes it incompatible with
Digest::MD5.
