Fix error when overwriting a bad symbolic link installing an nbextension...
Fix error when overwriting a bad symbolic link installing an nbextension The unit test fails before this fix and works after this fix. Basically, if the already-installed symlink is a bad link, .exists() returns False (so the existing link is not removed), while .lexists() will return True (so the existing link is removed).

"""Preserve a set of keys in a dictionary.
Upon entering the context manager the current values of the keys
will be saved. Upon exiting, the dictionary will be updated to
restore the original value of the preserved keys. Preserved keys
which did not exist when entering the context manager will be
deleted.
Examples
--------

>>> with preserve_keys(d, 'b', 'c', 'd'):
