Public bug reported:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MD5#Collision_vulnerabilities - MD5 is
comprehensively broken at this point. Debsums still claims to be using
md5.

Perhaps it is time to either remove debsums as being insufficient to the
task, or upgrade the hash that debsums uses to a stronger hash.

** Affects: debsums (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
