Subject: Trouble with FileUtils.rm_rf / .rmdir

I am trying to dynamically setup and teardown a directory structure for 
testing.  The code that I am using employs .rm_rf but I get the same 
results if I use
.rmdir instead.

#-------------------------------------------------------------------------
$:.unshift File.join(File.dirname(__FILE__), "..", "lib")

require 'test/unit'
require 'fileutils'
require 'mv2dir'

class Test_Mv2Dir < Test::Unit::TestCase
# What are we going to test for?

  #1. Test that instances test for valid directories and return
  #   TRUE or FALSE as expected.
  def test_dir
    #-- a.  define test directories
      dir_test = 
["~/tmp/mv2dir/test/source/","~/tmp/mv2dir/test/target/"]
    #-- b.  clear them out:
    dir_test.each do |dt|
      puts dt
      FileUtils.rm_rf(dt, :verbose => TRUE, :secure => TRUE)
#     FileUtils.rmdir(dt, :verbose => TRUE) rescue Errno::ENOENT
    end
...
#---------------------------------------------------------------------------

These are the results.  ~/tmp/mv2dir/test/target exists before the run.
It is my intention that it be gone at the end of the run.  It is not. 
Can
anyone point out to me what I am doing wrong?
