**Exception**
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Verifying contents of files installed from packages is more difficult in
|
||
|
|
Ubuntu, mainly due to the lack of an equivalent of ``rpm -V``. The ``debsums``
|
||
|
|
package installs the ``debsums`` command and that can be used to look for
|
||
|
|
files that have changed since the package was installed.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
However, not all packages have MD5 checksums for all files and ``debsums``
|
||
|
|
doesn't do detailed checking like ``rpm``. Deployers are urged to run
|
||
|
|
``debsums -c`` to review changes made to files on their systems. This report
|
||
|
|
takes a long time to run on most systems.
