restore

[Asheville Joe]

Hi.  I've been reading the restore man page and getting confused.  What 
I would like to do is run restore such that any missing or newer file is 
restored.

My source is /mnt/portable/root00[123] (made with dump).

My destination is /usr/bin

/usr/bin has a bunch of stuff in it, but a bunch also seems to be 
missing - notably:
kdm, gdm, mdkkdm, wine.bin .

If necessary, I can write a bash script to restore the files somewhere 
temporary and move them over one by one after testing dates, etc., but I 
hope there's a better way than that!

Any input would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Joe
