Depending on how brave you're feeling you can do this in one of two ways.
Personally i've never had problems using CPAN, and just NEVER NEVER letting it upgrade perl!!

perl -MCPAN -e shell
then just type:
install Digest::MD5
and it should get the library, etc.


If you don't like to use CPAN (And a lot of people on the list will advise that as there are some bad stories!!)
go to kobesearch.cpan.org
put in MD5
Find the one you want and choose the Download, then its the usual:
perl Makefile.pl
make
make test
make install
(all as root of course)

Hope that gets you going!
