perldoc has not been part of the default installation of many Linux distributions for quite some time so I am not surprised by some core modules not making it either.
Anyway, I just created a Digital Ocean ( https://www.digitalocean.com/?refcode=0d4cc75b3a74 ) droplet using Fedora 20 (the don't offer 21 yet) It does not even have Perl installed by default. I had to run yum install perl in order to have perl on the system and it indeed have not brought Digest::SHA with it, but it installed perldoc. yum install perl-Digest-SHA fixed it. It is a bit disturbing, but I am not surprised at all.
