It turned out that Digest/MD5 was also missing besides 
MIME/Base64. Off course both the *.pm files as well as 
the binaries of the modules need to be available.

Ubuntu touch comes with package perl-base instead of 
perl since OTA-5 to save 17MB root-fs. Previous versions 
had a full perl package aboard. According to the
developers, none of the packages delivered with the base 
system (apt-)depends on perl. 

I checked syncevolution-common and it does neither. So
should syncevolution-common add a dependency to perl? Or 
is there maybe a way to do a detailed compare without the 
Base64 and MD5 modules from package perl.
