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.
