Subject: Do not load MIME::Base64 which is not used
MIME::Base64 is loaded but never used as the base64 encoding is implemented in C. This dependency could be removed. -- Olivier Mengué - http://search.cpan.org/~dolmen/ http://github.com/dolmen/

Yes, you are correct. All of the Digest::base methods are implemented locally in Digest::SHA to guarantee portability to earlier (pre-5.007003) Perls. So there's no need to require MIME::Base64. Thanks for pointing this out. The fix will appear in 5.62, to be released shortly. The same modifications will apply to Digest::SHA::PurePerl as well. Mark

Disgest::SHA is also in the Perl core. Will it be fixed in Perl 5.14.0?

As of version 5.62, MIME::Base64 is no longer loaded. This is true of both Digest::SHA and Digest::SHA::PurePerl. For questions regarding Perl 5.14, I suggest you consult http://search.cpan.org/~jesse/perl-5.14.0-RC3/ Mark
