Package: libmd5-perl
Version: 2.03-2
Severity: normal

The MD5 module should be removed from Debian.  It is deprecated and has
been replaced by Digest::MD5 (which has almost the same API).

Some packages still depend on/recommend/suggest libmd5-perl (according
to apt-cache showpkg):

  gnudip: #539002
  hearse: only alternative dependency
  libcrypt-simple-perl: fixed in our SVN
  libopensrs-perl: #539010
  pilot-link: suggests libmd5-perl, but does not use it (it uses Digest::MD5)
  pop3browser: only recommends, #539011
  rkhunter: only recommends, #539018
  sympa: fixed in 5.4.7-1

Regards,
Ansgar
