   On Fedora, the command would be: `sudo dnf install perl-Digest-SHA` (similar 
to the CentOS command, but with `dnf` instead of `yum`). I never recommend 
adding `-y` to these commands, though, because it's good to manually approve 
any prompts after reading them thoroughly rather than automatically approve 
them.
   
   Like Ubuntu, this should be installed by default if you have `perl` 
installed on Fedora (specifically, `perl-CPAN`). In most installations, `perl` 
is installed already (either by default, or as part of the "Linux Server Base" 
(lsb) standard server install), so it's probably not necessary to explicitly 
state how to install it in the instructions. I think the error message is 
sufficient for most cases.
   
   However, I have noticed that over time, particularly on VMs, `perl` is no 
longer included in some Linux distros' default install. For that reason, we may 
wish to switch our scripts to use `openssl` or another tool that is more likely 
to be installed. I don't think we're there yet, but perhaps something to 
consider in future. I'd be willing to accept a pull request to change it, if 
somebody felt it was necessary.
