Package: developers-reference Version: 3.4.12 Severity: wishlist Hi!
Since dpkg 1.17.2, there's a new --verify option that can be used to verify the integrity of packages, for now only the md5sums are being checked, but more checks will be added in the future. Also since dpkg 1.16.3 md5sum files are generated at unpack time for packages that do not ship any. So at this point the debsums package is mostly unnecessary with stock dpkg, and the section in the dev-ref could be updated to that effect.
