Here's what I do:

1) List all of the directories or files I want sysclean to ignore in
/etc/sysclean.ignore (format is documented in sysclean(8)).

2) Run "sysclean" to list all files that are obsolete.

3) Manually review the output. If it contains files that are not
obsolete, goto 1.

4) Delete the files / directories listed in sysclean's output.

See sysclean(8) for details.
