Yes, but that means needing to scan the disk to find the repositories.
Devious users can place the repositories *anywhere*.
not if they use the official package manager to install - both debian
and ubuntu have set locations for user related content managed by apps.
and if a user has mucked about with it, then the check will find nothing
and they will be hosed like any power-user mucking about with a system :)
