You need to reverse the order of steps, and also remove empty
directories, and more files, to avoid the user getting these messages.

Unpacking iceweasel (46.0~a2+20160217064514-1) over (45.0~a2+20160107004004-1)

dpkg: warning: unable to delete old directory '/etc/iceweasel/profile/chrome':

Soon after I then do
