+=head1 Troubleshoting
+
+=head2 md5sum problems on Debian
+
+If you are running Debian stable and expiriencing error message like
+
+ -: No such file or directory
+
+your C<md5sum> comes from C<coreutils> (which doesn't know how to handle C<->
+as input) as opposed to C<md5sum> which comes with C<textutils> (which does).
+
+Fix is simple, correct md5sum is allready installed, you just have to do:
+
+ sudo cp /usr/bin/md5sum.textutils /usr/bin/md5sum
