interchange-ui will not start without the Perl module Digest::SHA1
(Digest/SHA1.pm) installed. However, this Perl module is no longer in Debian.
The maintainer has said that this bug will be fixed in version 5.8.0, but this
was on 25 November 2013, and there has been no progress since. You can see more
information about this in #687904.

For this reason, I propose that interchange be removed from Debian.

Hi,

I have decided to add the removal hint despite the fact that the bug has
"only" been promoted to RC today.

Thanks,
