I made a perl script using the Digest::MD5 module. _It works_. Now, a
"emerge -s md5" displays, besides some other packages unrelated to perl:

So, none is installed...
How to explain this? Are the packages perl-core/Digest-MD5 and
virtual/perl-Digest-MD5 obsolete? Meaning, are the modules included in
the standard packages?
(I did check that none of these packages is installed off portage...)
