since we rewrote snapper's zypp plugin from Python to C++, snapper has new build dependencies that break the build for old distros.
What distros should be interested in the zypper plugin except openSUSE and SUSE? Why not allow to disable that plugin?

I suspect that many of the build targets were addded just because we could, not because they serve a purpose.
At least when snapper was new they served the purpose to promote snapper.
Can we simply drop them? If not, what should our supported distro policy for Snapper be?
Maybe never drop a supported distro unless the effort to keep
them is huge.
