Update Information:

This tool and associated cron entry ensure that Certificate Revocation Lists
(CRLs) are periodically retrieved from the web sites of the respective
Certification Authorities. It assumes that the installed CA files follow the
hash.crl_url convention. This latest version contains bugfix: When more than one
URL was listed in the crl_url file, fetch-crl would download /all/ of these
CRLs, even if the download of the first one was already successful.  And it
would complain loudly if any of these failed. This kind-of defeats the purpose
of having multiple URLs there.
