Needs a precise definition of a "C program" file on the OP's server and a good overview of the directory structure and permissions.

The implication is that a non-root users will run a root script which displays the header of each "C program" source under their control and then prompts them to decide whether to delete that program source. Should they provide filename(s) as parameters to the script, the script will then only prompt the user to delete those named files.


(I'm backing off on this one because the requirement is much too vague).

LEARN ABOUT DEBIAN

dpatch

DPATCH(7)							      dpatch								 DPATCH(7)

NAME

       debian/patches/script.dpatch - self applying patch

SYNOPSIS

       debian/patches/script.dpatch -patch [directory]
       debian/patches/script.dpatch -unpatch [directory]
       debian/patches/script.dpatch -pkg-custom [directory]

DESCRIPTION

       A  dpatch is a program that modifies the source tree in a given directory. How it does that is entirely up to the person writing it. It can
       be a script that calls patch(1) with the appropriate options, a complicated perl script that does some deep magic, or  anything	else.  The
       only  requirement  is  that it MUST accept the -patch and -unpatch options, followed by the destination (or working) directory, when speci-
       fied. For the sake of compatibility, the second argument is only present when a working directory was explicitly set with dpatch --workdir.

       For some of the dpatch(1) features to work, the script should follow a common style: there should be a line near the top of the	file  with
       the  following  format: "filename -- author <email>". And one or more "# DP: description" lines. These will be used by dpatch cat for exam-
       ple.

WARNING

       dpatch is deprecated, please switch to the `3.0 (quilt)' Debian source package  format  instead.  See  http://wiki.debian.org/Projects/Deb-
       Src3.0#FAQ for a short guide on how to do it.

EXAMPLES

       One can find dpatch examples under /usr/share/doc/dpatch/examples/.
