Hi Andrew, When replying to emails on this list, please do not put your reply above the quoted text, and do not quote the entire message you're answering to. This makes it unnecessarily hard for other readers to understand the context of your email. Instead, please cut quoted parts that are not relevant to your reply, and insert your responses right after the points you're replying to (as I have done below). Thanks!

No, that is not correct. It is the next upgrade that may fail if you didn't run s3ql_verify before. However, if you can recreate the file system, then there is no harm in attempting the update and recreating the file system if it fails. Best, Nikolaus -- GPG encrypted emails preferred.
