[systemd-devel] How to remove *~ journal files?

[Andrei Borzenkov]

More than half of all files here are *~ files:

bor at opensuse:~/src/systemd> ls -1 /var/log/journal/40527be2480f8cf60f4e8d4b000006b0/*~ | wc -l
85
bor at opensuse:~/src/systemd> ls -1 /var/log/journal/40527be2480f8cf60f4e8d4b000006b0/* | wc -l
127

If I understand it correctly they are corrupted files. Should not they
have been deleted? What is the correct procedure to remove them?
