okay to delete stuff in /usr/tmp

I wouldn't clean it up manually. Some of the files may still be needed by
something. It looks like you're using Fedora or something RHEL-based, both
of which have a cleanup jump for /tmp (and /var/tmp if I remember
correctly). As long as you have cron running you shouldn't have to worry
about those directories, unless you're really really hurting for disk space
:-)
