Lars, sorry, but you have been warned in the 1.4.3 announcement.

Well, a better install system would do this automatically, but sysinst for
Amiga isn't ready yet. Please do:

ls -lt each of /sbin /bin /usr/bin /usr/sbin /usr/libexec /usr/lib

this is sorted by date, so you see what is 3 days old. New ones are at the top.

Hm... I even suspect that the Amiga/sun3/etc installer does this automatically,
now (since 1.4.something), but you can check anyway.
