hmmm...  I am not quite sure if that's what you're looking for, but
md5sum may calculate the md5sum of any file or compare it directly
against a list.

shell> md5sum --check <filename> <list>

Where "list" is the name of a list as the output of 'md5sum -b' and
"filename" is the name of the file to be checked. You will need a sum to
compare with, course. They are in the Packages in the repository for the
up to date files there, but not in local caches.
