[Bug 1444632] [NEW] sstream-mirror does not clean empty directories

[Scott Moser]

Public bug reported:

I've been mirroring cloud-images using sstream-mirror for quite a while
doing something like:

url=http://cloud-images.ubuntu.com/daily/
keyring="/usr/share/keyrings/ubuntu-cloudimage-keyring.gpg"
sstream-mirror -v --keyring=$keyring --max=2   "$url" /archive/cloud-images-daily


$ cd /archive/cloud-images-daily
$ ls
server streams
$ ls server/vivid/
20150227.1  20150306.2  20150317.6  20150324    20150331.4  20150408.1
20150228    20150307.4  20150318    20150324.1  20150331.5  20150410.2
20150303.3  20150308    20150319.5  20150324.2  20150401    20150411
20150304    20150308.1  20150320.4  20150325    20150402    20150411.1
20150304.2  20150308.2  20150321    20150327    20150403    20150412
20150305    20150313.4  20150321.1  20150327.3  20150403.1  20150413.1
20150305.1  20150314.1  20150322    20150328    20150403.2  20150413.2
20150306.1  20150316    20150322.1  20150328.1  20150408    20150414

All but the final 2 dirs there are empty.

sstream-mirror should probably clean up empty directories when it
removes a file.
