It probably is as there is this in code:

######################################################################
## load_sha1_support
######################################################################
sub load_sha1_support {
    my $sha1_loaded = eval {require Digest::SHA1};
    unless ($sha1_loaded) {
        fatal(<<"EOM");
Error loading the Perl module Digest::SHA1 needed for freedns update.
On Debian, the package libdigest-sha1-perl must be installed.
EOM
    }
    import  Digest::SHA1 (qw/sha1_hex/);
}

dpkg-diverge looks interesting. I'll look into it, thanks.
