yes, they seem pretty old:

I used to have an old iMac. And when I got this laptop, I did a time machine 
backup then and restored it to this laptop to not have to install all my 
software from scratch. Maybe it's old stuff from Java installations. I also 
have XQuartz running since ages now which has been updated from version to 
version, currently 2.7.11. I don't know which it could be that could be that 
old.

Seems like a lot of old stuff:

tr -d ':' | sort -u
