        WRONG.  Deleting old files is DISCOURAGED -- because we do
        not have tooling to discover if a user has built their own
        private programs which require those files.  I am actually
        getting a bit tired of (1) people overly worried about old
        files (2) who don't recognize they can always reinstall and
        (3) that we (OpenBSD) are not able to determine what to delete
        any better than you the user.
