Upgrade failure and corrupted installation ?

[Jonathan Fine]

Hi

Further to my previous post regarding Python's "with" statement.

It seems that something similar can be done in Perl, via DESTROY being
called when a variable goes out of scope. This statement is based on my
understanding of the discussion in
https://www.reddit.com/r/perl/comments/e4x90y/context_manager_in_perl/

I'd be most grateful if Norbert, as an expert in both Perl and tlmgr, would
tell us whether this would without too much difficulty provide "some
journaling for tlmgr operations" (Norbert's words).

In case anyone wishes to research this matter further, here's the search
used to find the reddit link above.
