Well I've actually got some good luck with apt-rpm pins
but rather prefer a backup in the uncertain cases given
that virtual machine/environment testing didn't veto it
in the first place...

If e.g. some databases get upgraded during the process then
I don't get how anything but a snapshot/backup would help.
Except for a stable magic wand but mine is just not there. :)
