Comment(by kini):

 Some thoughts:

  * In `strip_binaries()`, why not strip all executables? One can find them
 by checking exit status of `find . -perm /111 | grep "not stripped" &>
 /dev/null`, I think.
  * The *`_with_condition()` functions should not talk about extensions in
 their docstrings.
  * What about getting rid of !MoinMoin? (fake edit: never mind, the ticket
 description is wrong or out of date - it's under 20 MB)

 Going a bit farther, considering the target users will never develop or
 upgrade,

  * Should we delete mercurial repos?
  * Should we delete SPKGs?
