lintian test suite fail:
(22:56:02) broucarie: md5sum -- \'\\\
(22:56:02) broucarie: \d41d8cd98f00b204e9800998ecf8427e  '\\
(22:56:05) broucarie: ^
(22:56:17) broucarie: note the \ at the beginning
(22:57:05) broucarie: file is created by touch "'\\ "

Could you please avoid the \ at the beginning of the md5sum.

This is intentional and documented behavior:

“If FILE contains a backslash or newline, the line is started with a backslash, and each problematic character in the file name is escaped with a backslash, making the output unambiguous even in the presence of arbitrary file names.”
