If any file is missing from a port, it can't be uninstalled — at Initial Version

Description
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?
