+Tag: no-md5sums-control-file
+Severity: info
+Check: md5sums
+Explanation: This package does not contain an md5sums control file. This control
+ file listing the MD5 checksums of the contents of the package is not
+ required, but if present debsums can use it to verify that no files
+ shipped with your package have been modified. Providing it is
+ recommended.
+ .
+ If you are using debhelper to create your package, just add a call to
+ <code>dh&lowbar;md5sums</code> at the end of your binary-indep or binary-arch
+ target, right before <code>dh&lowbar;builddeb</code>.
