The list of packages is computed by finding all packages which end
up having either of PERL5_USE_PACKLIST, BUILDLINK_API_DEPENDS.perl,
or PERL5_PACKLIST defined in their make setup (tested via
"make show-vars VARNAMES=..."), minus the packages updated after

way. Thanks!

developer is officially maintaining the package.
The rationale for changing this from "tech-pkg" to "pkgsrc-users" is
that it implies that any user can try to maintain the package (by
submitting patches to the mailing list). Since the folks most likely
to care about the package are the folks that want to use it or are
already using it, this would leverage the energy of users who aren't
developers.
5.31 Mon Sep 5 00:52:42 MST 2005
- added standard tests for pod and pod-coverage checking
- inserted subtest to check for failure when using
unrecognized SHA algorithm
5.30 Sat Aug 20 16:46:08 MST 2005
- updated docs with recent NIST statement on SHA-1
-- advises use of larger and stronger hash functions
(i.e. SHA-224/256/384/512) for new developments
5.29 Sun Aug 14 04:48:34 MST 2005
- added explicit casts in "shaload" routine (ref. "ldvals")
-- thanks to E. Allen Smith for pointing out SGI compiler
warnings on IPxx-irix platforms
- updated docs with cautionary note about SHA-1
module directory has changed (eg. "darwin-2level" vs.
"darwin-thread-multi-2level").
binary packages of perl modules need to be distinguishable between
being built against threaded perl and unthreaded perl, so bump the
PKGREVISION of all perl module packages and introduce
BUILDLINK_RECOMMENDED for perl as perl>=5.8.5nb5 so the correct
dependencies are registered and the binary packages are distinct.
addresses PR pkg/28619 from H. Todd Fujinaka.
Change log:
5.28 Wed Nov 10 15:33:20 MST 2004
- provided more flexible formatting of SHA state files
-- entries may now contain embedded whitespace
for improved readability
- minor code cleanups
Collection.
The Perl 5 module Digest::SHA is a complete implementation of the
NIST Secure Hash Standard. It gives Perl programmers a convenient
way to calculate SHA-1, SHA-224, SHA-256, SHA-384, and SHA-512
message digests. The module can handle all types of input, including
partial-byte data.
