dependency validator tool ???



I am not quite sure how to search for this, and so far I have not turned
up anything substantive ;>

Is there some dpkg/apt tool to scan an existing system, and pass
judgment on the current state of installed dependency integrity?

Yes, I have a good idea how the installation process works, and I am
satisfied with that as far as it goes.

However, sometimes installations _remove_ stuff, and other processes
(e.g., deborphan, &c.) facilitate cleaning up unused files.

Accidents happen.  Bugs bug.

With all of these processes going on, is there a canonical method to
verify the integrity of the status quo?

what do you think?
