Lance asked how to *delete* caches, not how to *find* them. Hence the
question - What has changed that makes it "less obvious" that "rm" is
the command one should use to delete them? Nothing jumps out at me
that suggests that it won't work.

Or did I misunderstand his question? Apologies if so - I *do* have a
habit of taking things rather literally.
