Public bug reported:
If somebody is incautiously advised to remove /opt/click.ubuntu.com/* as
part of trying to figure out a problem with the click scope, then "click
list" gets very confused because the symlinks under
/opt/click.ubuntu.com/.click/ are still there but are now dangling.
phablet@ubuntu-phablet:/$ click list --manifest
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/click", line 84, in <module>
sys.exit(main())
File "/usr/bin/click", line 79, in main
mod.run(args)
File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/click/commands/list.py", line 59, in run

File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/click/commands/list.py", line 40, in
list_packages

File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/click/user.py", line 297, in path
(package, self.user))
KeyError: 'com.ubuntu.developer.dgalg.wordchain does not exist in any database
for user phablet'
This is not really a valid thing to do, especially now that click
supports proper package removal, but it would be nice to fail less
badly.
