Hope this is a good place to ask beginner CPAN questions. Seemingly just recently, I've begun getting errors like this while installing CPAN modules:
www:~# perl -MCPAN -e 'install Bundle::Slash' CPAN: LWP::UserAgent loaded ok <snip> Fetching with LWP: ftp://mirrors.kernel.org/pub/CPAN/authors/id/C/CN/CNANDOR/Bundle-Slash-2.35.tar.gz CPAN: MD5 security checks disabled because Digest::MD5 not installed.
