Comment 1 for bug 431993

We should investigate using the Contents file to create a list of directories to hard code in clear_partitions for explicit deletion. The fallback plan is to continue whitelisting, adding /usr/src, /var/local, and /usr/local to the list.

(09:40:53 PM) cjwatson: maybe it would be worth going through the Contents file and looking for directories in which we actually ship files, and nuking those
(09:41:07 PM) cjwatson: though the cross-compiler directories would be inconvenient
(09:44:44 PM) evand: I'm afraid of doing explicit deletion as if we ever ship a new directory and forget to upload clear_partitions, bad things happen
(09:44:52 PM) evand: err, well, can happen
(09:56:51 PM) cjwatson: bad things either way though
(09:57:07 PM) cjwatson: dunno - FHS directories except src are probably safe, at least
