I *think* he's talking about 'debsums' behaviour where you could have a "/etc/apt/apt.conf.d/40debsums" where "DPkg::Post-Invoke" automagically creates hashes for installed packages. In my humble opinion automatically updating the database without reviewing logged changes is as good as not using any filesystem integrity verification at all...
