Here, this will get you most of the way there.
I'm stumped. To test this, I copied some files
from X to Y, but the md5_hex sums don't agree.
?????
I checked the files with a hexdiff program and
they are identical. I wonder if Digest::MD5 can
be trusted???

############################################
#!/usr/bin/perl
use Digest::MD5 qw(md5_hex);

$path= '/home/zentara/X/';
$path1='/home/zentara/Y/';

opendir DIR, $path or die "can't ls $path: $!";
@X= grep { $_ ne "." and $_ ne ".." } readdir DIR;
close DIR;
opendir DIR, $path1 or die "can't ls $path: $!";
@Y= grep { $_ ne "." and $_ ne ".." } readdir DIR;
close DIR;

#print "@X\n@Y\n";

foreach $file (@X){
  $file1= $path1.$file;
  print "$file1\n";
  print md5_hex($file),"\n";
  print md5_hex($file1),"\n";

if ( md5_hex($file) ne md5_hex($file1)){
    print "$file is not identical\n"}
}


%Z = map { $_ => 1 } @Y;
@diff = grep { not $Z{$_} } @X;
print "$path1 is missing @diff\n";
