I guess if we take a step back and figure out what the goal is, then we
can figure out how to get there. If I understand correctly
1. last-action should be consulted only if _neither_ -D nor -L are given
2. if -D is given, then download to local directory only
3. if -L is given, then install from local directory only
4. if both -D and -L are given, download and install
In cases 2,3,4 - set last-action based on the state of -D and -L
