+Digest::HMAC is a perl module used for message integrity checks between two
+parties that share a secret key, and works in combination with some other
+Digest algorithm, usually MD5 or SHA-1. The HMAC mechanism is described
+in RFC 2104.
+
+The Digest::HMAC module follow the common Digest:: interface, but the
+constructor takes the secret key and the name of some other simple Digest::
+module as argument.
+
+It depends on: perl-digest-sha1 (available from Slackbuilds.org)
