MSI: fix handling empty directories
Great; likely that means that the problem was because of missing empty
directory that is expected to be present.
I am wondering whether you can backport this commit to libreoffice-7-4
as well, since the problem below also exists on 7.4 branch.
No. The change is a bit risky, because that Perl-based installer
machinery is very opaque, and - as you see yourself, it's very difficult
to track the problems that may arise from errors in the Perl scripts.
One regression has already appeared and hopefully was fixed by
89022d5b6dc51e592e22bb8ff94c430ec14de17c; I already see another flaw in
my code. It must boil in master.
