Bug#998738: libgcc1: The MD5 info provided for the file libgcc_s.so.1 is incorrect:
Package: libgcc1
Version: 1:8.3.0-6
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
It seems that the MD5 info provided with this package in the Debian binary package is incorrect
I'm useing a "poor man's ids" to find modified package files on my systems:
cat /root/bin/find_debian_md5_mismatch
#!/bin/sh
# apt install dlocate
dpkg --get-selections|grep install|awk '{print $1}'|xargs -iFOO dlocate -md5check 'FOO' 2>&1|fgrep ': FAILED'|fgrep -v ': FAILED open or read' |sort|uniq | sed -e 's/^/\//'
# /fin
After checking (including freshly installed systems by VPS providers) I found that a number of
packages consistently have incorrect md5 checksums, of which libgcc1 is one. Manual checks of these
files did not show any nefarieus stuff, and these checksum faillures have been here for a long time
(years .. I'm only reporting it now because I'm finally at the end of my todo lists).
The file in question is :
lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgcc_s.so.1
It can easely be reproduced with:
sudo apt install dlocate
sudo dlocate -md5check libgcc1:amd64 | grep FAILED
If there is anything I can do to help, please let me know
Kind regards,
