 I'm on my way out, so apologies for brevity.

 Steps to reproduce

 1) Activated Hello Dolly on a site on my network.

 2) Deleted hello.php

 3) Got an error that the plugin was deactivated for being not found, as
 expected.

 4) I went elsewhere, came back to the plugins page... the error was still
 there.

 I don't know if this is because I'm on a network (or if it's something
 weird with my database, I'd buy that too, since it takes a minute or so
 before a theme activated per-site shows up ON that site), but since I
 could reproduce it on my localhost install, I suspect it's not just my DB.

 To fix I had to restore hello.php, then deactivate, THEN delete.

 That's gonna cause a problem when we tell people to rename the plugins
 folder to debug.
