AFAIK nothing from any of the packages should ever getting stalled into
/usr/local

So if you had stuff there it wasn't loaded by the package manager apt,
apt-get etc.

"apt-file find afppasswd" on a few debian based systems only seems to find
/usr/share/man/ja/man1/afppasswd.1.gz - no executable found.

Have toy tried to do an internet search to find which package it should
be in?
