is there any method of directing an update to"roll back" to the last stable pre-update state if an update breaks?
If an update won't build, it will never be installed.
The problem is if you're doing a broad installation, as in update world which installs all updated packages, and you upgrade yourself into version-incompatibility, where some essential system will not run because one or more packages that DID install is incompatible with one that could not.
True, except that no essential system package depends on anything with this problem generally.
