Tested in Bionicpup64 8.0, frugal install, using save folder.

Seems to have worked OK.

Just some suggestions.
1. A little warning on how long this check is going to take.
Took about 10 minutes for my setup.
2. Maybe have broken-debs.log go into /var/log directory.
Maybe into /tmp directory, if it is not needed between boots and should be auto deleted.
3. Some info on what to do if something is found.
My broken-debs.log shows a lot of stuff not correct.
A lot of information and I really have no idea what I really need to do about it.

My Bionicpup64 8.0 seems to be working OK and all installed programs seem to be working OK.
Key word seem to be working OK.

Very useful, I think :)
Thanks for providing this!!!
