You're looking for debsums. The actual MD5 sum files come with the
packages (or at least packages more modern than Woody, give or take)

I dunno why it's in its own package, I actually thought it came with
dpkg now. ^_^

Of course Pacman didn't influence us as kids. If it did,
we'd be running around in darkened rooms, popping pills and
listening to repetitive music.
