When downloading any package unless package verification is disabled,
package verification needs to have succeeded before removal of any old
software. With package verification enabled, on the current version of
slapt-get I notice slapt-get removes old software and empty directories
before doing package verification of the newly downloaded package.
Sooner or later someone with a flakey connection or malware thrown into a
package will have a problem with this if it's not changed.
