This looks like it risks deleting more files than intended. If some
package uses country codes or domain names in filenames, then this
change could silently delete files specific to Laos.

Language codes occur as filename suffixes. Apache can use them to serve
web pages in the client's preferred language. This change risks deleting
files written in latin.

If there is a more reliable way to recognize a Libtool archive by
inspecting the file's content, then I think the script should do that
to verify that files with a ".la" suffix really are Libtool archives
before deleting them.
