Dealing with obsoleted CygUtils packages


How does one remove only those files in a CygUtils usr-local package
(e.g. zlib, libpng, jbigkit, jpeg, tiff, login and inetutils)
that are now obsolete because they are included in the standard Cygwin
distribution? 

I could:

  * delete everything and reinstall everything
  * write a script that removes from /usr/local/... any file that also
    exists in /usr/...

Are there any other options? How are other people dealing with this
problem? 

Thanks.
