Description

On bundle upgrades, the old files in ~/Activities don't get erased!

Besides the waste of disk space, this may potentially result in real bugs.

Looking at jarabe,model.bundleregistry #407 upgrade method. The code logic seems to be deleting the old files.

The only scenario where i could find where the old files are not deleted, was when trying to delete system activities.

In fact, I tried this, on my jhbuild devel environent:

1. mv $SUGAR_JHBUILD_PATH/install/share/sugar/activities/Terminal.activity ~/Activities
2. vim ~/Activities/Terminal.activity/iwashere.probes
3. make sure the file is really there
4. Started sugar on jhbuild and upgraded
5. Checked again for iwashere.probes.. and it was gone...

So, it actually deletes the older files, except when they are systems activities.
