IMHO this violates POLA. If it is vital and has changed it 
should be reinstalled.
It was just instinct that I haven't removed this file.

I forgot to mention that I check the ctime, not mtime.
If the files were copied with the mtime preserved the ctime should 
have changed anyway.

| -C	Copy the file.  If the target file already exists and the files
|	are the same, then don't change the modification time of the tar-

This is ambiguos. Does that mean the file isn't copied at all, or 
is it copied with the mtime preserved (and thus changes the ctime)?

thx
