But mtree doesn't has an option to ask the user if he really wants to delete those files (at least it's not very obvious if you fast-read the man-page). Even if they are old base system files, I don't want to just remove them without explicit permission. Better safe than sorry. But maybe I'm paranoid (at least for files and directories, but I strongly discourage the automated removal of old libs). If there's consensus that we should use mtree to remove the files and directories I will switch to mtree (so far you're the only one who responded to this, so it would be nice of someone else would tell us his prefered color too), but you have to write a lot more to convince me to do the same for the libraries.
