It depends on what do you need it for. Out of the box, there is no way
to check if the libraries have been changed / corrupted from the time of
the install because there are many valid modes of installation for new
libraries. You can use the built-in md5 or mtree commands to make a
record of some state of files and later compare the record with the new
state, or you can install one of many ports that do something like that
more-or-less automatically (e.g. security/tripwire).
