No. The responsibility for making it possible to upgrade in place
*reliably* and *with confidence* is an entirely upstream problem.
Rigorous backwards compatibility, rigorous testing for performance
regressions, reliable upgrade paths, being able to achieve low/no
downtime on the cloud during upgrade. All upstream problems.

Putting the code into packages and making the packages install well is
a distribution problem. For distributions with orchestration code tied
into them, orchestrating the upgrade is also a distribution problem
(e.g. RDO and UO both offer fully orchestrated deployments, so any
upgrade orchestration will be bundled there).
