Well it has to use something to validate the package. The data it

can't do allot of validating without that metadata.
Indeed.
But I suppose it would make sense to not return "OK" if the list of
files is missing.
Sure.
So I will continue to just test the presence of the .lst.gz to check if
a package is installed:
- missing: not correctly installed
- present: installed (correctly or corrupted)
