Description William Throwe 2011-11-20 21:23:39 UTC
The package only lists it as a recommendation and the string 'Signature' does not occur in any source files.

$ grep -rl Signature PAR-1.002/
PAR-1.002/ChangeLog
PAR-1.002/META.yml
PAR-1.002/Makefile.PL
PAR-1.002/lib/PAR/Tutorial.pod

It looks like all the code that uses it was split off into PAR::Packer in 2006.

Module-Signature pulls in an additional 55 dependencies on my machine.

Removed both Module-Signature and Digest-SHA. Both are used for signed distributions.
