Download issue, if a previous installation attempt was aborted #13

So, I just got around to installing YNAB on my laptop, which had Linux Mint 17 (based on Ubuntu 14.04). The first run-through everything in the script performed fine. However, I had a couple of warnings concerning mono and gecko. I decided to abort the YNAB installation and satisfy those dependencies first. Upon installing them, and trying to re-run the script, I would get the following output:

elliot@ransford ~/Development/YNABLinuxInstall $ perl ./YNAB4_LinuxInstall.pl

Use of uninitialized value $UPDATE_LOCATION in open at ./YNAB4_LinuxInstall.pl line 386.
Couldn't open file: No such file or directory at ./YNAB4_LinuxInstall.pl line 20.

At first I thought it was a problem with the download method and tried to utilize LWP over wget, but the same happened.

After I removed the ~/.wine_ynab4 directory, everything went smoothly. I suspect there's a problem when the script can't find the application.xml file to compare versions. Although, I'm a little uncertain why it's giving errors about the $UPDATE_LOCATION value...

By way of confirmation:

After a successful installation of YNAB4, I renamed application.xml to application-not.xml and received the same error pasted above. I also ran the installation script, without renaming the file, and got a message stating that the most up-to-date version was already installed.

Looks like we need to check if whether or not the application.xml file actually exists before comparing versions...

Giving an error about the $UPATE_LOCATION value makes perfect sense now. I didn't realize that I had used the save_file_data function within the compare_versions function.ions` function.
