If I'm reading the --help page correct, by default repoclosure should
check *all* packages, and with --newest it should check *only newest*
packages. Therefore if a broken dependency is detected with --newest
and is not detected without it, I assume it should be reported as
a bug in repoclosure.

I believe we should check all packages available, that means no 
--newest. Assuming it works correctly.

The other question is - should we write/find another tool to detect
duplicated packages on the install media and report an error if
multiple versions of the same package are found there? Should that 
condition be always valid, or are there some exceptions?
