After a crash, I got this:

  # zpool status -v rpool
    pool: rpool
   state: ONLINE
  status: One or more devices has experienced an error resulting in data
          corruption.  Applications may be affected.
  action: Restore the file in question if possible.  Otherwise restore the
          entire pool from backup.

  config:

          rpool       ONLINE       0     0    24
            c5t0d0s0  ONLINE       0     0    48
  
  errors: Permanent errors have been detected in the following files:
  
          rpool/ROOT/hipster-20180701 at install:/usr/share/locale/ast/LC_MESSAGES/pidgin.mo
          rpool/ROOT/hipster-20180701 at install:/usr/share/locale/br/LC_MESSAGES/pidgin.mo
          rpool/ROOT/hipster-20180701 at 2017-10-01-22:45:12:/var/pkg/publisher/openindiana.org/file/ae/ae7f3967d2210dd0b0edc07f1dabcea2e64d652c
  
Those filesystems all seem to be snapshots.  They correspond to two
older BEs that I created.  Since snapshots are read-only, I assume
I can't restore the files as indicated.  Should I just destroy the
snapshots?  Should I destroy the BEs?  What should I do?
