Uses simple regex instead of properly parses Perl source code (PPI, Compiler::Lexer) so potentially lots of false positives. Better use existing solutions like Perl::PrereqScanner or Perl::PrereqScanner::Lite, which already come with their own CLI's.

This pure-perl module creates a shallow copy of the object instead of directly removing blessing from the same object (which requires XS). Acme::Damn is the more direct counterpart of bless().

Use Digest::SHA instead. In general, there is no reason in using Digest::SHA1 over Digest::SHA. The latter is a core Perl module, more updated, and implements the other algorithms while the former only implements SHA-1 which is now deprecated.

The &quot;checksum&quot; (basically just adding 16-bit words) is too simplistic to be a real checksum or to be practically useful. Even MD5 or CRC32 is infinitely better.

My new favorite Levenshtein distance module. It's as fast (if not faster) than Text::Levenshtein::XS and can provide a speed boost if you don't care about distances above a certain limit. Which I think in many cases is true.
