what is the intent of the following code:

if package_path == patch_path:
    filecheck(package_path, known_packages + known_patches)
else:
    filecheck(package_path, known_packages)
    sumfail + filecheck(patch_path, known_patches)

sumfail is never actually assigned to anywhere and is never used afterwards.
