The md5deep intends to be a md5sum fork with more features: "(...) Md5deep is similar to the md5sum program found in the GNU Coreutils package, but has the Following additional features:" - http://md5deep.sourceforge.net/ Anyway, reading your answer and searching a bit more, I found that the latest version of hashdeep has different behavior depending on how it is called: "For historical Reasons, the program has different options and features When run with the names" hashdeep "and" md5deep "" -https:. //github.com/jessek/hashdeep#md5deep-vs-hashdeep Simply create a symlink called md5deep pointing to hashdeep and they work differently solving the problem. I think this is missing and should be done in the installation of hashdeep package. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1525217 Title: md5deep binary is missing To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/md5deep/+bug/1525217/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
