MD5 Checksum Tool

[Kirkx]

It might be a good idea to consider including MD5 checksum utility in the repositories. A few weeks ago I have spent quite a while looking for one in Synaptic and on the web. The most popular seems to be GtkHash, but it can only compute checksums, it doesn't have "compare" function:

I have eventually found one tool that can verify checksums, Checksums Calculator. It's portable, there is no installer, you just need to unzip it to a custom directory, set permissions and create menu shortcut:
