You can forget my previous request for running external program in
case there are binaries newer than summary.
ALWAYS running pkg_update_summary before pkg_chk is better/more
correct solution.
I would agree.
You can leave pkg_chk as it is. Though, as you already noted, checking
for 'summary is more recent than all binaries' is not fully correct.
I think the 'summary is more recent than all binaries' check is
worth keeping in pkg_chk as its simple and quick enough to run
and while it may not catch everything it will certainly catch
most cases...
