Yes there is:

[12:36:41 /tmp]$ ls -l /var/lib/dpkg/available
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root      2547713 Apr 25 00:46 /var/lib/dpkg/available
[12:39:36 /tmp]$ od -cj 2547700 /var/lib/dpkg/available
11557764   c   e   9   1   8   0   f   a   4   2   d   f  \n
11560001
[12:39:42 /tmp]$

and 
    dpkg -l doc-linux-text
works too. I do not know what was changed.

Shouldn't there be a Description field after the MD5sum?
