A few bugs were found after the 2.1.0 version of check-rpms was released.
Most notably:
* if neither --recheck nor --list-questionable (-r or -lq) were specified
a questionable package was not listed although it the standard algorithm
found an update for the package
* if --recheck (-r) and --download (-dl) were specified with a ftp server
that serves several versions of the same package with at least one of
those packages having letters in the version-release string, both
packages must be downloaded. The new version now deletes after the recheck
the package that is not needed.
