## NAME
       lcf - Determine which of the historical versions of a config is installed

## SYNOPSIS
       **lcf** _[options]_ _<Destination_ _File_ _Name>_ _<Historical_ _MD5SUM_ _source_ _directory>_

## DESCRIPTION
       This  script, given a destination file name, and a directory containing md5sums of historical
       versions of the file, attempts to determine if the installed version corresponds to a histor‐
       ical  version.  lcf uses the same algorithm that ucf uses, and should exhibit the same behav‐
       iour.

       The source directory is the place where historical md5sums are  expected  to  live.  Specifi‐
       cally,  the  historical  md5sums are looked for in either the file _${filename}.md5sum,_ or the
       subdirectory _${filename}.md5sum.d/_

## OPTIONS
### -h, --help
              Print a short usage message

### -n, --no-action
              Dry run. Print the actions that would be taken if the script is invoked, but  take  no
              action.

### -d [n], --debug [n]
              Set the debug level to the (optional) level _n_ (n defaults to 1). This turns on copious
              debugging information.

### -v,  --verbose
              Make the script be very verbose about setting internal variables.

## FILES
       _/var/lib/ucf/hashfile,_ _/etc/ucf.conf_

## BUGS
       There are no bugs.  Any resemblance thereof is delirium. Really.
