Where did xprop run off to?

xprop seems to have disappeared from my system. This has to be wrong, but from
everything I can tell it's not there.

PATH:
/home/webframp/.cabal/bin:/home/webframp/scripts:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/usr/games:/usr/lib/surfraw:/opt/kde/bin:/opt/java/bin:/usr/lib/surfraw

$apropos xprop
XPropertyEvent (3)   - PropertyNotify event structure

$ whereis xprop
xprop:

$ locate xprop:
/home/webframp/src/sbird/trunk/dependencies/linux-x86_64/taglib/debug/include/taglib/speexproperties.h
/home/webframp/src/sbird/trunk/dependencies/linux-x86_64/taglib/debug/include/taglib/.svn/text-base/speexproperties.h.svn-base
/home/webframp/src/sbird/trunk/dependencies/linux-x86_64/taglib/release/include/taglib/speexproperties.h
/home/webframp/src/sbird/trunk/dependencies/linux-x86_64/taglib/release/include/taglib/.svn/text-base/speexproperties.h.svn-base
/usr/include/taglib/speexproperties.h

Not even sure what's going on here, I thought xprop was part of xorg-utils
pkg. But apparently I was wrong.

have you tried reinstalling xorg?, have you upgraded recently?

You must somehow lost it. It still exists here.

bp:~$ whereis xprop
xprop: /usr/bin/xprop /usr/man/man1/xprop.1.gz /usr/share/man/man1/xprop.1.gz

Best do reinstall xorg-utils.

reinstalling xorg-utils did fix it of course. What's odd is that xorg-utils was recorded as installed already. Oh well.
