It sounds like the popular distros are well-handled, in this.
Snapshots may not be pertinent to Arch. Doesn't Arch use the approach
that each user builds from source? Also, it is not a free distro
The free distros Parabola, Hyperbola and Guix also use that approach,
right? So maybe snapshots are not pertinent to them.
I'm glad to see that there is no actual problem of the sort
I was worried about.
