No such file exists on my system, let alone an inserted "check4updates" command. I don't know what's going on with your system, but none of the problems you've encountered with Axel's packages have happened on my system (other than the lm_sensors procfs/sysfs error [I hope to work with Axel to figure out a solution rather than muddle the waters with a "downgrade"]).
