The README is explicit that both COPRs are personal repositories and
that the previous standard one was abandoned mid-lifecycle. The
safety net today is a text console: a broken update costs a
graphical session.

Root is btrfs and snapper is not installed. A pre-transaction
snapshot in donbox-update, with a retention count, turns 'I can log
in and fix it' into 'I can undo it'.

Deferred deliberately; opened so it is not forgotten.
