I know there is. Before my hard drive crashed & I reinstalled, I found it
and tried it. I could swear the program name was debsum, but I can't find
it.
Woohoo... was looking through the list of .debs which I had installed
before the crash...
package is called debsums... "The package also allows comparing the
md5sums in a .deb file with the current installed files by extracting the
md5sums file from the .deb"
I don't remember what I did to check all of the md5sums... might have done
a dpkg -l piped through cut to get all the package names and fed that to
debsums....
