You don't have to *delete* them, actually.

If they are needed, you could move "mv" them to the /home partition,
and then set up a symbolic link using the "ln -s" command. Works well.

There are already several examples of this, such as /usr/src/redhat ?
I recommend doing the same for /usr/src/linux-#.##.### and /usr/java.

PS. Or you could increase the size of the root partition, of course...
    But is a lot of work, unless you "meant to do a OS Restore anyway"
