Chuck, why is that changed this way?

This problem is two bugs!

* etckepper shouldn't remove empty directories - that is handled, and
fixed, with a bugreport on it's own as can be seen in the history here!

* a program not starting because a directory missing that _might_
contain _optional_ config files is a bug too, IMHO - why should it worry
about a missing directory, when it's contents are optional, and it can
very well run without any information in that directory, instead
insisting the empty directory must be there?

So, please move this bug back so it can be fixed where it belongs -
thanks.

Or close it, if you think a program should be allowed to insist whetever
empty directory to exist so it can start, even if it'll never need that
directory.
