#22001: If any file is missing from a port, it can't be uninstalled

Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: Normal | Milestone:
Component: base | Version: 1.8.1
Keywords: | Port:
-----------------------------------+----------------------------------------
The error is:
Error: port uninstall failed: realpath failed: No such file or directory
I use a script to delete unnecessary files from my MacPorts installation,
saving a lot of storage space and backup time in the process. I don't, for
example, need localizations in languages such as Malayalam or Klingon, nor
do I need 200 copies of the GPL. This used to cause no problems, but now
it does. What's wrong with just skipping a missing file during the
uninstall process, perhaps with a warning?
