If it is vital and has changed it should be reinstalled. It was just instinct that I haven't removed this file. > > 858 Mar 6 2002 /usr/libdata/perl/5.00503/mach/_h2ph_pre.ph > > Perl install just uses the source dates. 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. > > 5930 Mar 6 2002 /usr/include/values.h > > Headers are installed with -C option of install(1), | -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- | get. 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 Birk
