[Bug 1525217] Re: md5deep binary is missing

[ichap...@videotron.ca]

I have fixed the missing md5deep and made my script run okay.
sudo ln -s /usr/bin/hashdeep /usr/local/bin/md5deep
That is all I did to get both hashdeep and md5deep functional.  They use the 
same binary code and work differently (a wee bit anyway) depending on being 
called by md5deep or hashdeep.
I'm using Linux Mint 18.1 derived from Ubuntu 16.10.
What is still not working is "info md5deep" but it is okay for "info hashdeep".

It all needs to be looked at in Ubuntu.

In Debian 18.1 and Mint LMDE 2 Betsy they were both okay after
installation.  Regards Ian.

[Hans Joachim Desserud]

Thanks for reporting this issue.

As dpkg mentioned, md5deep is now a transitional dummy package for
hashdeep.

>From what I can see, it looks like md5deep has been renamed to (and
replaced by) hashdeep. For this reason the package was removed from
Debian (https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=804855) and in
turn, Ubuntu
(https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/md5deep/+publishinghistory).

So this looks like this is intential, and that hashdeep should be
possible to use instead.

[Bug 1525217] Re: md5deep binary is missing

[Andrey de Oliveira]

Thanks for reading and responding. I believe the purpose of hashdeep and
md5deep are different.

The md5deep intends to be a md5sum fork with more features:

"(...) Md5deep is similar to the md5sum program found in the GNU
Coreutils package, but has the Following additional features:" -
http://md5deep.sourceforge.net/

Anyway, reading your answer and searching a bit more, I found that the
latest version of hashdeep has different behavior depending on how it is
called:

"For historical Reasons, the program has different options and features
When run with the names" hashdeep "and" md5deep "" -https:.
//github.com/jessek/hashdeep#md5deep-vs-hashdeep

Simply create a symlink called md5deep pointing to hashdeep and they
work differently solving the problem.

I think this is missing and should be done in the installation of
hashdeep package.
