Package: libdigest-perl-md5-perl (1.9-5)

[ Source: libdigest-perl-md5-perl  ]

Perl Implementation of Rivest's MD5 algorithm

Digest::Perl::MD5s has the same interface as the much faster Digest::MD5, but unlike that, it is not an interface but a Perl implementation of MD5. Because of this it is slow but it works without C-Code. You should use Digest::MD5 instead of this module if it is available. This module is only useful for

 - computers where you cannot install Digest::MD5 (e.g. lack of a C-Compiler)
 - encrypting only small amounts of data (less than one million bytes),
   e.g. hashing passwords
 - educational purposes
