Notifications about point releases are given irrespective of 'check every <X>' settings #30

I have ukuu set to check every two weeks for updates. Ukuu seems to contravene the setting by notifying me, before that time has elapsed, about point releases.

ukuu 17.12 on Mint 18.3 x64.

EDIT: I have two Mint computers. On one, update is set to 21 days. That PC seems not to have the problem. The other computer uses the 'weeks' value, that value being set to '2'. That computer has the problem.

FURTHER EDIT: on reflection, perhaps there is no mistake. The kernel concerned (Ubuntu 4.14.6) has been out for only a day, I believe; but perhaps the computer concerned last checked less than two weeks ago. So perhaps I am just being a nuisance; but perhaps also it would be worth checking your code . .

I'm not sure if I'm seeing the same thing, but it may be related. I'm set to see updates every 24 days (Yeah, so I'm lazy and just changed 24 hours to 24 days), but every day I get notification that there is an update available to 4.14.3. This is particularly irritating as I'm running 4.14.4, and I don't want to know about 4.14.3 anymore. I'm running Ukuu 17.12 on Ubuntu 17.10 It's possibly relevant that I also had 4.14.2 showing up in Ukuu as installed. I'm just trying removing that to see if it stops the warnings.

Possible further clue - despiute my having hit refresh to see if there were newer versions available, none had shown up. After removing 4.14.2, versions 4.14.5 - 4.14.7 appeared. I wonder if it was (somehow) seeing newer version, but only able to report the latest uninstalled, which by the list was 4.14.3.

This is happening on a new install of Mint, and after I've told UKUU (today) to remind me only every three weeks. Every session (i.e. some time after every boot) I get an update notification about a new kernel.
