If the directory contains files or directories with mode 000 (unusual, but
possible) or owned by somebody else (e.g. root) this will fail and throw
an exception.
You could use os.walk() + os.chmod() to handle the 000 case, though I'm
unsure whether it's worth the effort. Passing ignore_errors=True to
rmtree() to avoid breaking for any other reason is certainly a good idea,
though. If you want to check whether rmtree() was successful, just check
if profile_path still exists.
