* Package name : libencode-base58-perl Version : 0.01 Upstream Author : Tatsuhiko Miyagawa <miyag...@bulknews.net> * URL : https://metacpan.org/release/Encode-Base58 * License : Artistic or GPL-1+ Programming Lang: Perl Description : module to shorten numbers using a base58 conversion Encode::Base58 permits one to encode and decode numbers using a base58 conversion. It differs from a base64 conversion by having confusing (0, O, l and I) and non alpha-numeric ( + and /) characters removed. It is used by Flickr for its URL shortener and in Bitcoin addresses. This module is a requirement in Flickr::API2 that I plan to package. I will package it within the Debian Perl Team.
