    Strange. I never had this problem. It's obvious for files that have
    local mods, because, well, you modified them (/etc/passwd...), and
    irrelevant in case of files w/o any local mods, because then you can
    just "install the new version". Without the need to know which side
    of the screen the new file is at.
