Comment (by hellofromTonya):

 From core scrub today, @afragen noted that he'll open a new ticket to
 address the `copy_dir` changes Dion mentioned above.

 For this ticket though, just want to make sure we all understand. Replying
 to [comment:56 dd32]:
 > An alternative option would be to flip this around, and not add a
 rollback functionality into it, but rather install into a temporary
 directory first, and then remove existing/rename new into place.

 Hey @dd32 > Is the proposed implementation how it currently works>

 If yes, then nothing else needs to be done in this ticket.
