I did a fresh install from the karmic alt amd64 cd build 20091016 onto ext4 on LVM. Post install update, and installation of a limited amount of additional software, I ran a debsums -a on the system, and noticed the following things:

- debsums claims that the following packages don't have an md5sums at all: bogofilter,g++,binutils, installation-report, libgdbm3, liblockfile1, lockfile-progs, mawk, netbase, update-inetd, xorg,xserver-xorg-input-all, and xserver-xorg-video-all. All of these are supposed to, though 5 are 0 length, but they're all missing from the ext4/lvm install:

- the following files were reported as failing their debsums check:

/var/lib/gdm/.gconf.defaults/%gconf-tree.xml FAILED
/usr/share/applications/gpilotd-control-applet.desktop FAILED
/var/lib/openoffice/basis3.1/share/config/javasettingsunopkginstall.xml FAILED

the last is expected (I believe) but not the first two.
