Sijie Guo commented on BOOKKEEPER-273:
--------------------------------------
I like the idea Uma proposed, changing deleteLedger to return a boolean result
indicating whether the file is deleted succeed or not. If we want to do it, it
would be API change and I would suggest marking it as 4.2.0.
BTW, it would be better to generate the patch with '-no-prefix' option, which
might be easy for users to apply.

> Deleting a non-existing ledger should silently succeed.
> Current behavior is to raise a ZKException, but it's not possible to know
> whether there was some error or the ledger does not exists anymore.
> This scenario will happen when a previous deleteLedger() call succeeded but
> the client crashed before updating its own ledger list.
