Thank you, @Yum-wu! This change landed on dev through the maintainer carry #6789 (squash commit 68c9d35), which credits you with a Co-authored-by trailer. The carry narrows the guidance to failed update installs and moves the troubleshooting notes to the matching docs page. Closing this PR as superseded by #6789.
