Review request for Viewer.


Changes
-------

This new diff addresses Boroondas' list/tuple remark.

I also added a fix to remove empty directories. Before this patch, install.py 
would only delete (empty) directories that were a part of the path of a deleted 
file. The problem with that is that if a tar ball contains an empty directory, 
it is never removed. I ran into this while running new tests. Fully tested (on 
linux). Thanks to Boroondas for assistance with the python syntax.


Summary
-------

See https://jira.secondlife.com/browse/VWR-24311

Basically, this fixes the TODO comment in install.py but with the difference 
that we really want to uninstall any old package with the same name, different 
md5 or not.


This addresses bug VWR-24311.

Testing
-------

Loads of testing on linux... Installing new packages now cleanly removes the 
old one first.


Thanks,

Aleric
