IMO this is a normal operation:
svn up && fppkg clean build

Questions:
Why a warning instead of a hint?
Why not explain why it was searched?

If you think that the message is needed, then maybe use this:

Hint: File "units/i386-darwin/allcodetoolunits.o" was already deleted

I will rather write a tool than add them manually.

That's where I looked. Should I copy the SearchFile procedure?
