We do not have a target which allows to go to src/bin/XXX and run "make deinstall" or similar. What is correctly written in this thread is that "make check-old" and "make delete-old" (and "make delete-old-libs") is supposed to do what you want (given that there is already support in the src to exclude this part of FreeBSD during installation). The most up-to-date version is in -current, I do not know about the stable branches (I do not monitor if people which change the corresponding file have merged the changes to stable branches or not).

What may not be 100% correct in src is the list of files to delete (= a bug). For this the suggestion in the thread is also correct, if there is something which does not work please send a PR.

This would be more accurate and require less maintenance if OptionalObsoleteFiles.inc were auto-generated ala genplist. Don't know if that's practical, just wanted to suggest it.
