NAME
debsums_init - Initialize md5sums files for packages lacking them
SYNOPSIS
debsums_init
DESCRIPTION
debsums_init will look for packages that did not install their md5sums files. Then, it
will generate those md5sums files from the binary packages downloaded via APT if avail-
able.
This initialization process is needed since there are many packages which do not ship
md5sums file in their binary packages. If you enable auto-gen option while installing
debsum package, you need to run this debsums_init command only once after you install the
debsums package.
debsums_init needs to be invoked as superuser.
You may wish to clear local package cache prior to running debsums_init command to make
sure you are creating from the untainted packages by executing:.
apt-get clean
