verifying a Debian package

[Paul Yeatman <pyeatman@ucsd.edu>]

Hi, just curious if anyone knows how to "verify" a package with
Debian.  This has proved to be useful with some Red Hat machines I
administer ("rpm {-V|--verify} <package name>").  Such a command will
check that all the files and their attributes are as expected for that
package.  I've check the manual page for dpkg a few times but have
not come up with an equivalent command for Debian yet.

Thanks,

Paul
