.SH DESCRIPTION
Report errors in metadata of the dirfile(5) database specified by
.IR DIRFILE .
Three separate checks are performed. First, the format specification metadata
is scanned for syntax errors (see dirfile-format(5)) and Dirfile Standards
compliance. Second, fields defined in the database are checked for
self-consistency. Finally, the database is queried for its length.
