Does apt-get check the integrity of cached debs before installing them? For example, if I did
apt-get --download-only install <package> which downloads the package to the file /var/cache/apt/archives/<package>.version.deb but doesn't install it, and then sometime later, after the above file became corrupt because of a faulty hard drive, did apt-get install <package> (which required no new download because there is no version change) would the corruption be detected? In other words, is the check done after the download, before the installation, or both? Is there an easy way to check the integrity of cached debs and remove corrupt ones? Also, is there an easy way to check the integrity of the unchanging parts of installed packages? Thanks (a lot). Win -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
