/usr/bin/md5sum belongs to dpkg, not coreutils. The latter's is
renamed md5sum.textutils. The two behave differently wrt '-v': the
older, dpkg version requires it to see output of the '-c' option,
while the newer coreutils version, does not.

Why doesn't Debian default to the newer version?

Best regards,

Eric
